Revert "Download files at sync time" to "as needed" : How to remove all locally stored files?
I recently had to set "Download files at sync time" since I had to do some offline work.
Now I would like to revert the setting, to "Download as needed". So I would like to remove all my local downloaded attachments, and then just have Zotero download the ones I need when I try to open an item.
How can I do this gracefully, without triggering sync errors, etc. ?

Search for PDFs in the zotero/storage folder and then delete all PDFs. If you also have snapshots synced, do the same for .HTML files. You *don't* want to delete all contents of the storage folder, though, since it also, e.g., contains the full-text search index files you'll almost certainly want to keep.
