Seek to clear Action Log via script

Post by DixieCup48 »

Have used Search to locate Clear Action Log. Have read the disparate threads. Want to know if deletion of action.dat to accomplish this is safe?

May work but seems Draconian and laden with "unintended consequences". :?

Yes, if you delete the action.dat the entire action log along with undo/redo history is cleared. There are no other consequences.

To SammaySarkar - Thank you for responding. Having given this considerable thought have decided it is better to continue clear the Action Log by means of the User Interface rather than invoking it as part of a script. Don't want to risk tearing a hole in the Space-Time Continuum by deleting an XYplorer file. :wink:
