The Purge Files feature deletes built documents from their original locations.
WARNING: Since this permanently deletes files from the hard drive, it is especially important you do not clear the build on the database after the files have been purged unless the files are no longer needed. Clearing the build deletes the files from the database, and if they have also been purged from their original locations, the files will no longer be accessible.
