Find and delete file size

[gucci_406]

Hi all,

I wondered if anybody could help me out.

I need to create a Quality Control bat script where it looks into folder and delete .png files IF the size is below 10kb.

Is this possible?

Cheers,

Ian

What have you got so far?

Code: [Select]

Set objFS = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
strFolder = "C:\test"
Set objFolder = objFS.GetFolder(strFolder)
For Each Files In objFolder.Files
If objFS.GetExtensionName(Files) = "png" Then
If Files.Size > 10000 Then
WScript.Echo "File " & Files.Name & " found."
End If
End If
Next
save the above as script.vbs and on command line

Code: [Select]

c:\test> cscript /nologo script.vbs

That's the beauty of VBS... so productive!

@echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
for /f "delims==" %%F in ('dir /b *.png') do (
     set /a fsize=%%~zF
     if !fsize! LSS 10240 del "%%~dpnxF"
     )

what requirements have you not stated yet?

Code: [Select]

Set objFS = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
strFolder = "C:\test"
Set objFolder = objFS.GetFolder(strFolder)
For Each Files In objFolder.Files
If objFS.GetExtensionName(Files) = "doc" Then
If Files.Size > 10000 Then
WScript.Echo "File " & Files.Name & " found."
objFS.DeleteFile(Files)
End If
End If
Next

@dias, yes i saw that in the original post thank you. I am asking OP what other requirements he has not stated yet, besides deletion of files.

Just a point, 10 KB (file size) is conventionally 10 x 1024 bytes = 10240 bytes.

[ghostdog74]

it would depend on how OP wants it. A file with size 10239 bytes for example will not be deleted.
