Compacting the catalog does not remove clips from your hard disk or from Microsoft Clip Organizer, but will only compact your primary Clip Organizer catalog. This catalog contains the thumbnail-sized clip previews and other clip property data. If you want to remove installed clips from your computer to save space, you must uninstall them using the program they were installed with.
Note: Microsoft Office Clip Organizer is no longer included after Office 2010 and is not available in apps in Office 2013 or later versions.
