VB script to delete folders older than 7 days

Hi,

Take a look at the FileSystemObject and Folder object:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hww8txat%28v=vs.84%29.aspx

What do you really want to do?  By that I meant, what do you mean by a folder "older than 7 days"?  Does that mean a folder that contains no files newer than 7 days?  Or something else?  And how would subfolders factor into this, when a folder has both files and folders underneath it, what is the logic/rules to be followed there?

I receive a folder contains 4 files everyday. So in the archive directory(shared) i have multiple folders contains 4 files each. Now i need to delete the folders that are older than 7 days.

Now i need to delete the folders that are older than 7 days.

Okay, and how exactly do you want to determine which folders can be deleted?

• If all the files are older than 7 days?
• If the folders Windows create date is older than 7 days?
• Is the date of the folder part of the folder name that should be looked at?
• Something else?

yes.. based on the each folder's modified date and no need to consider the folder name.

I did tried with objSubFolder.Delete True but nothing is getting deleted.

Wooowwww!!!! Works like a magic!!! Thank you mate!!

Welcome, glad that was useful.
