Hello All, found a way to delete files older than x days with "forfiles" command. Is there a way to instruct forfiles to delete a folder older than x days too. Or alternatively is there a way to delete via batch file folders older than x days Thank you and best regards giuseppe giuseppe

You can .vbs file: iDaysOld = x Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") sDirectoryPath = "C:\Temp" set oFolder = oFSO.GetFolder(sDirectoryPath) set oFileCollection = oFolder.Files 'If database log file backups are older than x days, delete them. For each oFile in oFileCollection If oFile.DateLastModified < (Date() - iDaysOld) Then oFile.Delete(True) End If Next 'Clean up Set oFSO = Nothing Set oFolder = Nothing Set oFileCollection = Nothing Set oFile = Nothing I have found it in this link, so you can have a look at it: http://www.experts-exchange.com/Programming/Languages/Visual_Basic/Q_23094977.html Best regards.

I found another script: http://forums.devshed.com/windows-help-34/deleting-files-older-than-14-days-using-batch-file-script-364137.html As it is a script related question, you can also create a post to The Official Scripting Guys Forum!
