Hi Paulo,

Thanks for the suggestion. Does it have an option to delete files? In most cases I want to do a delete.

Have you ever used robocopy?

I am looking for recommendations for a file delete utility to be run on a Windows server. The delete criteria would be the age of the files within a list of folders. Each folder might have a different retention value. It would need to run via the Windows scheduler.

A nice to have feature would be the ability to move to a different folder instead of deleting, but not required. TIA.
