# Reduce Install Size

The breadth of configurations in this addon comes with an unintended consequence: the massive **14.7 GB installation size**. We realise that this may be an issue for some PC users. 

Interestingly, nearly 9 GB is taken up by the liveries folder. Therefore, for users with storage restrictions, we reccommend downsizing the livery selection by following these steps:

1. Navigate to the community folder by following [this guide](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meMP-RVRICc) (not affiliated).
2. Open folders in the following progression:\ <sub>`miltechsimulations-aircraft-bo105 > SimObjects > Airplanes > Miltech_Bo105 > liveries > miltech`</sub>
3. **Delete the livery folders of your choice.** You can view the livery by opening the associated folder, then the nested `thumbnail` folder, and viewing the thumbnail images.
4. The configuration menu will now show empty placeholders in place of these liveries, but the product continues to function as normal. If you face any issues, please contact support.
5. To remove these placeholders - *completely optional and only visual change* - please update the layout.json file by using this tool: [MSFSLayoutGenerator](https://github.com/HughesMDflyer4/MSFSLayoutGenerator) (not affiliated, independent developer)

{% hint style="info" %}
To reverse these changes, simply re-download the product (.zip) file and move the relevant livery folders back into the same directory.
