Program for automatically deleting old files?

[Guest boe]

Hello,

 

I'd like to automatically clean out files older than 90 days on a weekly

basis from specific directories are there any commands, utilities or

programs I can use to do this?

 

 

Thanks

You can do this with robocopy.exe, using the /mov switch, followed

by a "delete" command.

Thanks - I'm not familiar with it but I'll look it up.
