Walkthrough
- Open Settings → Maintenance and tap Clean Up Orphan Records.
- Rootkin scans the tree for records that reference a person who's already been deleted — a relationship row, a photo tag, or a voice memory linked to someone you removed.
- It removes only those loose ends. It never touches a person, photo, or memory that still has a valid subject — so it's safe to run any time.
- When it's done, Rootkin tells you what it cleaned up.
When to run it. Deleting a person now cleans up after itself automatically, so you rarely need this. It's most useful after a lot of edits, or after a
GEDCOM import that left a few stray references behind.
