 * On LiteSpeed Cache Image Optimization, I’ve converted to webp (max 200 at once,
   but I have clicked a lot) and “Remove Original Image Backups”. I thought that
   the image file sizes are optimized webp. But reality is that the image files 
   are up to 27 image files, original files and optimized files, and only 1 image.
   How can I remove all of the original image files and fix it?

 * I am not sure if I understand your question
 * assume you have an image `something.jpg`
 * after optimization , it will be
 * something.jpg -> optm’ed version
 * something.bk.jpg -> original backup
 * something.jpg.webp -> webp version
 * the `.bk.` can be removed with that option

 * for example, first I uploaded 1 image file (_something.jpg_) and then I finished
   with 20+ image files:
   _something.bk.jpgsomething.jpgsomething-54×150.bk.jpgsomething-
   54×150.jpgsomething-100×100.bk.jpgsomething-100×100.jpgsomething-100×100.jpg.
   webpsomething-108×300.bk.jpgsomething-108×300.jpgsomething-200×120.bk.jpgsomething-
   200×120.jpgsomething-200×120.jpg.webpsomething-200×300.bk.jpgsomething-200×300.
   jpgsomething-350×120.bk.jpgsomething-350×120.jpgsomething-350×120.jpg.webpsomething-
   360×240.bk.jpgsomething-360×240.jpgsomething-367×1024.bk.jpgsomething-367×1024.
   jpgsomething-430×685.bk.jpgsomething-430×685.jpgsomething-430×685.jpg.webpI have
   clicked “Delete all backups of the original images->Remove Original Image Backups”,
   but still there are a lot of original images are still there.

 * yes, these `-100x100` images are generated by wordpress when you upload it , 
   not related to our plugin
 * the `.bk.` are the original backup and will be removed if you do `remove original
   backup` , the `.webp` is the webp version of main file , it is needed for compatibility

 * So that is “Remove Original Image Backups” is only on “.bk.”, correct?
   How can
   I replaced also from the .jpg/gif/bmp/png/etc to .webp ? Alternatively I have
   to manually delete all of the the files, /public_html/wp-content/uploads/20XX/
   XX on FTP.
 * Have tried also with this:
   Auto Request Cron=offAuto Pull Cron=onOptimize Original
   Images=onRemove Original Backups=onOptimize Losslessly=offPreserve EXIF/XMP data
   =onImage WebP Replacement=onWebP For Extra srcset=offWordPress Image Quality 
   Control=82
 * In the end, I have a lot of space is just wasted for I can’t use many of the 
   image files, so therefore I want to delete many of the MB/GB.

 * yes, it only removes the ones contains `.bk.`
 * well , no , our plugin is not designed to work that way , so you probably can’t
   do it
 * I mean , you can certainly remove all these none-webp files, but later on you
   will have bigger problem , as not all the images link will be replaced to webp
