== Using attrib.exe to Manage States

Experienced users can also manage xref:vfs-states[VFS states] from the Windows command line using `attrib`. This is especially useful if you want to change the state of an entire folder/subfolder. Open a `PowerShell` command line window as from the start menu and change to the directory of the {ini_name} sync folder/subfolder that contains the data you want to change in bulk.

== Manage Drive Space With Storage Sense
163136

Microsoft provides a mechanism called {storage-sense-url}[Storage Sense, window=_blank] that can automatically free up disk space for applications that use VFS. This is done by converting files that were set to be xref:vfs-states[locally available] back to cloud-based content that is xref:vfs-states[placeholder files] on the local drive, which takes up no space.
