Tools --> Options --> Maintenance --> Clean Up now --> Compact.
You can also change your store folder. I always do that. When I have to reinstall, I simply change it back to my custom store folder from the default and all you messages will be there. |

Changing your store folder has nothing to do with stability.
In event of reinstall, changing your store folder is beneficial since you won't lose all your messages. |
