Adobe Encore - getting rid of excess files in the Sources\ directory to make it more likely to work?

Question

I still have to support legacy media like DVDs and am struggling with Encore on Windows 10.

Its pretty flakey.

But I also think that its becasue we make DVD menu templates for each of our products and each one is based on some original sometime in the past.

Hence a lot of excess files and baggage builds up and I think this makes it more unstable. Thats my theory.

Just which files can I get rid of to clean things up?

At present I am removing the Sources\Menus\*.mpg *.m2v *,xmps *.xm*

Can I get rid of the Transcodes folder contents?

So really I am asking what files I can get rid of to trim this thing down without completely breaking it.

I have not found it that different in Win 10, but I am not doing that much challenging work now.

Getting rid of any of those options things is not likely to fix what makes Encore a problem. Create a new project. I have found that you can usually import menu (after exporting them). But links, etc, have to be redone. Yes, it takes some work, but Encore is likely to work better.
