A batch file to delete files based on time created/modified

Seeing this statement and Foxidrives men in black picture with what Will is holding jumped out at me as wrong..... just saying

Nice one, foxidrive. I won't say anything about the double-colon comment lines...

I had previously prepared a bunch of jpg files for which I had modified the creation, modification, and access stamps to all be the same, starting at 01-01-2014 00:00, at 5 minute intervals to 23:55 on the same day, so in my test case the mod time was also the creation time. To make the test timestamps I used Nircmd with the setfiletime option (I didn't do this manually!)

Code: [Select]

                                          CREATED               MODIFIED              ACCESSED
nircmd.exe setfiletime "filename001.jpg" "01-01-2014 00:00:00" "01-01-2014 00:00:00" "01-01-2014 00:00:00"
etc

So wrong it's right, by any chance?

Well sir I was abducted by aliens and ever since then I have been looking for a little pay back.

I'm actually still abducted by said aliens.  It's nice up here.

Hi guys, necroing this thread-

I have the same problem as OP. Large scale construction project timelapse where I only need photos from between certain times of day every day.

I'm trying to use the scripts posted by salmontrout and foxi. I can get them to run but they're deleting every photo, regardless of timestamp.

I'm a pretty big noob when it comes to this stuff. Does anyone have any insight into what my problem could be? I've changed the directory path and start/end times to suit my purposes but the scripts keep deleting every photo instead of just the photos outside of the time range I specify.

Thanks in advance!

Jeremy

Haven't seen her around in a while and went looking to see when last active.    It must be nice up there!
