### gotosocial admin media prune orphaned
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
This command can be used to prune orphaned media from your GoToSocial.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Orphaned media is defined as media that is in storage under a key that matches the format used by GoToSocial, but which does not have a corresponding database entry. This is useful for excising files that may be remaining from a previous installation, or files that were placed in storage mistakenly.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
**This command only works when GoToSocial is not running, since it acquires an exclusive lock on storage. Stop GoToSocial first before running this command!**
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```text
 | 
			
		||||
prune orphaned media from storage
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Usage:
 | 
			
		||||
  gotosocial admin media prune orphaned [flags]
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Flags:
 | 
			
		||||
      --dry-run   perform a dry run and only log number of items eligible for pruning (default true)
 | 
			
		||||
  -h, --help      help for orphaned
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
By default, this command performs a dry run, which will log how many items can be pruned. To do it for real, add `--dry-run=false` to the command.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Example (dry run):
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```bash
 | 
			
		||||
gotosocial admin media prune orphaned
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Example (for real):
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```bash
 | 
			
		||||
gotosocial admin media prune orphaned --dry-run=false
 | 
			
		||||
```
