HowTo Clear SharePoint Timer Job Cache

Often during SharePoint development can be usefull to clear Timer Job Cache.
In order to do that we need to do this:

  • Stop Windows SharePoint Timer Service from Windows Services
  • Open C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\SharePoint\Config\<<GUID>> folder
  • Delete all the XML files inside the GUID folder.
  • Open the Cache.ini file and change the value to 1.
  • Save Cache.ini file
  • Restart Windows SharePoint Timer Service from Windows Services

After restarting Windows SharePoint Timer Service you can see that the cache will be repopulate (quite resource expensive activity).

Do that on every SharePoint server in the farm.
