I followed the steps, however when I enable Run whether user is logged on or not option, the programs status stays on running and never deletes the files. If I enable the run When user is logged on I get no problems. Anyone have any ideas why this is the case?

The script works – however, I need to have an “auto answer” because I get a question “(folder) has children and the Recurse parameter was not specified. There are many folders (in my example) “F:ftproot” that has sub-folder and files. The script is asking “do you want to continue” and choices is “A = Yes to All, N=No, L=No to all, S=Suspend

I appreciate any help or insight to resolve this.

How to modify this so it looks at creation date rather than last modified date?
