Is it safe to truncate ws_audit table? (19M records killed SQL Expr)

$

I have a SQL Server express DB under the starter product, and unfortunately, the volume of WS auditing was exponentially higher than the rest of the DB usage (10K-50K rows in some tables, 19M rows in WS_AUDIT), so I now have a DB that's full, and 80% of it appears to be WS_AUDIT.

 

I've tried to purge from the Admin UI as per another posting, which brings down the size of the table for a while, but then the job fails, and then I see the count of rows go right back up to >19M again :-(

 

Can I safely do a Truncate on this table in SQL Express Mgmt Studio??

 

If so, I'm assuming that the processes/services all be stopped?

 

Any help would be appreciated...
