      HI,

      Is there an APDL command which does the same as "delete unneded files" in the analysis settings?

      When the Delete Unneeded Files property is set to Yes (default), the application automatically executes the Mechanical APDL command /FCLEAN. This command deletes all of the unneeded distributed files from the scratch directory when performing a distributed solution. This action eliminates the need to download potentially large distributed files, and as a result, completes your solution faster.

      Regards Ashish Khemka
