# Automatically clean-up unpublished packages on the App-V client
# Automatically cleanup unpublished packages on the App-V client
**Applies to**
- Windows 10, version 1703
## Clean-up by using PowerShell commands
Previous versions of App-V have required you to manually remove your unpublished packages from your client devices, to free up additional storage space. Windows 10, version 1703 introduces the ability to use PowerShell or Group Policy settings to automatically cleanup your unpublished packages after a device restart.
## Cleanup by using PowerShell commands
Using PowerShell, you can turn on the **AutoCleanupEnabled** setting to automatically cleanup your unpublished App-V packages from your App-V client devices.
**To turn on the AutoCleanupEnabled option**
1. Open PowerShell as an admin and run the following command to turn on the automatic package cleanup functionality:
```ps1
Set-AppvClientConfiguration -AutoCleanupEnabled 1
```
The command runs and you should see the following info on the PowerShell screen:
<table border="1">
<tr>
<thead>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Value</th>
<th>SetbyGroupPolicy</th>
</thead>
</tr>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>AutoCleanupEnabled</td>
<td>1</td>
<td>False</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
2. Run the following command to make sure the packages were successfully cleaned up.
```ps1
Get-AppvClientConfiguration
```
You should see the **AutoCleanupEnabled** option turned on (shows a value of "1") in the configuration list.
## Clean-up by using Group Policy settings
Using Group Policy, you can turn on the **Enable automatic cleanup of unused appv packages** setting to automatically cleanup your unpublished App-V packages from your App-V client devices.
**To turn on the Enable automatic cleanup of unused appv packages setting**
1. Open your Group Policy editor and double-click the Administrative Templates\System\App-V\PackageManagement\Enable automatic cleanup of unused appv packages setting.
2.Click **Enabled**, and then click **OK**.
The setting is turned on and will cleanup any unpublished App-V packages on the App-V Client after restarting.

>We have reduced the number of environmental checks performed by the App-V Sequencer, narrowing down the list of apps that need to be disabled or turned off for a clean sequencing experience. We've also suppressed antivirus and other similar app warnings.
### Provision a new VM by using a VHD file
Provisioning your new VM includes creating a VHD file, setting up a user account, turning on remote PowerShell scripting, and installing the App-V Sequencer.
