Delete Update Files Wsus

I received an old WSUS server which before received updates for some applications which we don't use any more (XP, Vista, Office 2003, etc.) I was able for make a big clean to the WSUS content folder, but yet the database is very big (75 092 updates!!) which we don't need. Also the console disconnect from the server very often when loading this amount of data. My first idea was uninstall/reinstall, but there is a Sharepoint running, and I'm not complete clear if won't affect it. How can I clean the database? Or if is necessary reinstall, which are the risks? As a local administrator, access the distribution server.

Stop the WSUS Web site in Internet Information Services (IIS). To do so, open IIS from Administrative Tools, navigate to the WSUS Administration Web site, right-click the Web site, and click Stop. Open a Command Prompt window and change folders to%drive% Program Files Update Services Tools. Type the following: wsusutil.exe deleteunneededrevisions After the command has completed successfully, restart the WSUS Administration Web site. To do so, right-click the Web site in IIS and click Start. Open a Command Prompt window and change folders to%drive% Program Files Update Services Tools.

Type the following: wsusutil.exe deleteunneededrevisions.@Chris, thanks for your answer. Wsusutil was for WSUS 2, I believe from WSUS 3 you must use the GUI.

But the Cleanup Wizard won't delete the database records (only the files) for declined updates. And I believe it's not a bug, somewhere I read 'it's working as designed', but I think this a big issue!! And of course, I tried by cmd, but there is not anymore 'deleteunneededrevisions'.

Dont You forgot the N-versions of the upgrade. I ran the script and none of the N-versions was removed. Tomtom Renault Europa Karte Youtube more.

I used the script and removed every “Upgrades”. And resynced. Anna Morna Family. And my SCCM CB still return errors and stops synching after 5 errors in the “Upgrades”.
