Runing FlexPDE produces several intermediate files. A handy tool called Clean_FlexPDE_Outs.vbs" is a visual basic scripts which can be ran on the machines with Windows operating system and help you to clean all intermediate and final outputs of FlexPDE. It has a warning start window to alert you about the operation. Next it ask you which type of files you like to delete. The default file types is .pg4, .dbg, and .log.
You can add other types if you like. Next it ask you if you want to delete these files in all subdirectories of starting folder. Note that you can not undelete the removed files by this script. Finally a report will be generated in a text file.

Caustions:
1- If you run the script in FlexPDE root please be aware selecting .log file type will delete the
uninstall.log in uninstall folder so befor using this script make a copy of that.
2- Viruses can attack Windows system through scripts so be aware about this.
3- You can not undo the operation / undelete files.

A utility to do this may be useful, but I point out that it is quite easy to do this in Windows Explorer, too.

In Explorer, navigate to the highest level folder containing FlexPDE output you want to clean. Click "Search", then type in the extension to clean up, such as "*.pg4". When the files are located, you can select them all or only a few, and delete them.
