Reducing the size of your Windows.edb (Search) and DataStore.edb (Update) databases
Posted by jpluimers on 2017/01/30
Windows Search: Windows.edb
If you use Windows Search (I don’t: I use Everything by VoidTools), your Windows.edb can grow ridiculously large. It is a single file, though it appears to be in two places because there is a symbolic link from C:\Users\All Users to C:\ProgramData :
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Search\Data\Applications\Windows\Windows.edb
C:\Users\All Users\Microsoft\Search\Data\Applications\Windows\Windows.edb
This is how to reduce its size:
How to offline defrag the index
- Change the Windows Search service so that it does not automatically start. To do this, run the following command in cmd.exe:
sc config wsearch start= disabled- Run the following command to stop the Windows Search service:
net stop wsearch- Run the following command to perform offline compaction of the Windows.edb file:
esentutl.exe /d %AllUsersProfile%\Microsoft\Search\Data\Applications\Windows\Windows.edb- Run the following command to change the Windows Search service to delayed start:
sc config wsearch start= delayed-auto- Run the following command to start the service:
net start wsearch
Notes:
- I did not perform the last 2 steps as I’ve kept Windows Search disabled.
- If you want to reduce the size of the
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Search\Data\Applications\Windows\Projects\SystemIndex\Indexer\CiFiles\Â directory:- Before step 1, choose what kind of Windows Search indexing options you want
- Between step 3 and 4, delete the directory
Windows Update: DataStore.edb
Windows Update uses the same database structure and is a single file:
C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore\DataStore.edb
This is how I reduced its size:
net stop wuauserv net stop bits esentutl.exe /d C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore\DataStore.edb net start bits net start wuauserv
Talking about Windows Update: you might also want to Clean Up the WinSxS Folder

DIY pick and place machine from parts of scanner, inkjet printer, DVD player and vaccuum pump – Open Theremin – Urs Gaudenz
Posted by jpluimers on 2017/01/30
Urs Gaudenz manufactures Open.Theremin kits using his do it yourself pick and place machine which he built from low cost scanner, ink jet printer, DVD player mechanics and some Arduino controlling. Even his solder oven is Arduino controlled!
This is months of work showing a work flow in a 11 minute youtube video. Well done!
