I want to use this tool to remove unwanted preview files. My model files are kept on a removable external SSD.

The program resides in the documents folder of my C Drive. When I try to use the program, it tells me that it can't access the required files because they are not located on the correct pathway. How do I resolve this issue?

@ezromeo
If it's a .bat file, open it with a text editor like notepad and find the lines where the path is written and change it with your model's path.

@ezromeo

what exactly do you mean ... remove unwanted preview files ??

do you mean.....
1> remove files shown on the PREVIEWS tab/page ?
or
2> remove .demo files from your downloaded cards ?

for 1> ... Quit iStripper completely (iStripper saves this file when you quit, so you must quit first)
navigate to C:\Users\YOUR USER NAME\AppData\Local\vghd\data
delete the file demos.lst
relaunch iStripper

for 2> I might provide a tool (.bat file) if you explain exactly what you want to do

Am I correct that. when I go to the Previews tab and select a girl and watch a preview of her routine, that loads data onto my computer? If so , where does that new data reside? On my C: drive, where my data file is, or on my E: drive
( my SSD) where my Models file resides?

When I started out, I had the entirety of the iStripper pathway on my C: drive, and the Remover program worked fine.

Now that I have moved my Models file to my SSD, the program will not find these preview files. Instead I get a message saying that "The data or models directory cannot be found". I assume all this has to do with my moving my Models file to the SSD to give me more space. I need to know what to change to correct the situation.

apparently you asked about offboard storage back in 2023 and @Manue showed you where to find the how-to

Is it possible for me to store my iStripper files to an external drive to save disk space space on my PC?

I can't give you a definitive answer, I don't know your setup... however, you should read the thread Did you know that? Storage... it has all your answers

Each Card has a Data folder stored in your Local Profile, Normally on C:\ Drive

and if you Preview or Purchase the card, it will then have a Models folder for the Animation data
This will be in the Path set in the Advance Settings of the APP in the DATA section.

I believe what you are asking, is where are the Animation Data files stored when you Preview a card?

These files are saved in the Models Path which is set by the Advance Settings of the App in the Section titled DATA
In this Path, there will be a folder with the same Number of the Card
in this folder are the Animation Data files
.DEMO files for the Previews.
.VGHD files for the Purchased files.

The App Advance Settings

knowing what the Advance Settings Path is
you can then Browse to that Path using File Explorer
https://www.istripper.com/customdata/forum/2025-01-03/VdaFrdG9.png
In this Path, Each Card Number has it's own SubFolder where all of the Animation Files for that card are stored.

In the Models Folder for a card that has been Previewed
you will find only the ,DEMO files
These can be deleted but will be redownloaded if you again preview the card.

In the Models Folder for a Purchased Card that has been Downloaded
you will find both, .VGHD and .DEMO files
These should NOT be deleted.

in the DATA folders Normally stored in your User Profile on the C:\ Drive
each cards Data folder has the Images used by the App.
These should NOT be deleted.
