# Clean up manager

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Windows" %}
The ***Clean up manager*** allows administrators to delete histories and logs of specific vaults or entire workspaces. Entry history can still be found under ***Reports – Activity logs***.

1. In the ***Administration*** tab of the ribbon, click on ***Clean up manager***.
2. Choose prior to which date the data will be deleted and determine whether to execute the action for a specific vault or for the entire workspace.
3. Select the suppression action(s) to perform. If vault-specific activity or administrative logs are to be deleted, a new ***Backup*** tab will appear allowing for a backup (XML file format) of the data.
4. Click ***Execute***.
