# Command {#command}

Target group: **Administrators**

The states of the rate limiter is stored in the `var/form_rate_limit/`
folder. To clean up this folder with expired states, a command is available. You
can call it on the console with:

**Composer mode**

```bash
vendor/bin/typo3 formratelimit:cleanupexpiredstorageentries
```

**Classic mode**

```bash
typo3/sysext/core/bin/typo3 formratelimit:cleanupexpiredstorageentries
```

To run the command regularly you can add a cron job or run it from the TYPO3 scheduler.
