I have unix tools available on my Windows boxes, so I have have a tendency to use those, eg. using unix find to delete files older than x days.
Now a while ago I saw that there is a forfiles.exe in NT ressource kit, which can do similar job, only it does not work on UNC paths:
forfiles /P file://machine/share /M thesefiles*
ERROR: UNC paths (file://machine/share) are not supported.
You can get inspired by some cleanup examples:
forfiles /p C:\documentService\bin /s /m trace*.* /d -120 /c "cmd /c del @path"
forfiles /p D:\DocumentStore\imagingShare /s /m *.tif* /d -120 /c "cmd /c del @path"
And as always ss64.com has forfiles examples.Another example for deleting files:
FORFILES /p C:\filename /s /m *.* /d -3 /c “CMD /C del /Q @FILE
