BIM Cache Cleaner

BIM Cache Cleaner helps you inspect and clean Autodesk Revit and Revizto collaboration caches. It shows all stored models, identifies corrupted files, and allows selective cleanup without touching Revit.

Features at a Glance

  • Scans cache files directly, no more reliance on journals
  • Shows all Revit and Revizto cache files
  • Groups by version and project, working files and links
  • Detects corrupted files
  • Advanced mode for detailed cleanup
  • CSV export of Collaboration Cache folder structure
  • Copy-out function
  • Age-based colour coding

How to Use

  • Extract the ZIP to any folder
    • Unblock the zip file before extracting using Properties -> Unblock
  • Run BIMCacheCleaner.WPF.exe
  • The cache will automatically scan
  • Select unwanted models or folders
  • Use Delete Selected or Export Audit Data

Notes

  • Files deleted are permanently removed — check before confirming
  • “Advanced Mode” exposes all collaboration cache content, allowing you to delete individual parts; use with care!
  • Cache deletion only affects local data. You can always re-download the files.
