Automation Anywhere Task files (.atmx) that have grown to 10 MB cannot be cleaned up

3k views Asked by At

I have some Automation Anywhere Task Files (.atmx) that have grown to over 10MB, that do no image processing. I contacted Automation Anywhere's help desk (#55905) and could only get help from the documentation on how to turn off Advanced settings "Capture Screenshots while Recording a Task" and "Capture Screenshots while Running a Task", which I had already done to stop further growth.

I have also manually removed any images from "VISUALIZE" in the Task Editor.

But all to no avail, the .atmx is still over 10MB and I see no way of reducing the file size or what is causing such large source files.

Any insights would be much appreciated.

I have noticed this happened if the atmx file had any scripts which was created using Smart recorder, Screen Recorder or Web recorder. But did not happen while using drag & drag commands in AA.
