Hello, Experts!<br />
<br />
I am interested in creating a Robocopy, VB, or other script that can be used to move files that have not changed in 3 years to a separate share with file structure intact. The end goal is to setup a Scheduled Task that will automatically archive files that have not been used within our environment for an extended period of time.<br />
<br />
I am certain I am not taking all aspects of such a process into account, so feel free to include suggestions. In the end, I just know that there are files that are just sitting idle, taking up space, that could be moved to cheaper disks.

VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting Edition) is an interpreted scripting language developed by Microsoft that is modeled on Visual Basic, but with some important differences. VBScript is commonly used for automating administrative and other tasks in Windows operating systems (by means of the Windows Script Host) and for server-side scripting in ASP web applications. It is also used for client-side scripting in Internet Explorer, specifically in intranet web applications.
