I ask this because in a normal situation Windows isn't too happy running on a drive that has extremely small amounts of free space, and being concerned about a few megabytes or gigabytes is an indicator that an extra HDD would be useful. foxidrive Sir, I am fascinated by the personal care you take ...

Once again I am very sorry foxdrive Sir, Each time typed 2Tb but it was 20 Gb.
I have 1 Tb hard disk and 1 Tb portable hard disc.
Thank you Sir.

The people here love batch files and programming and are always willing to help - but they have all seen questions in the past where the task is poorly described, and bang their heads on their keyboard as the code that was provided has to be re-written when more details are finally revealed - becau...

Aacini Sir, I tried your code on InstalCleaner.Cmd. When run It gave error. also did not select first file. Screenshot : http://i.imgur.com/g6Nrhhr.png Then I edited file. @echo off setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion if exist ListFile.txt goto nextRun cls echo This is the first time this program run: C...

Do you mean that you want to delete every file that is not in a permanent list, or that you wish to delete only the files that ARE in a permanent list. Or have I misunderstood this aspect? I had responded in my post to above. I tried to suggest a few options to explain elaborately to get closer to ...

2. This deletion process is very frequent, almost daily. 3. The names of files to be retained or deleted are constant and permanent. The point 3 above could be very important detail in creating this script. Do you mean that you want to delete every file that is not in a permanent list, or that you ...

I wish to add further information, which might help to create actual script.

Thank you Sir.

Can I clarify that you want to press yes or no for each file that was in the 10 page list you created? That's going to be quite a lot of clicking. You also want a log file of each file that is deleted, and it should be cleared each time this batch script is run. If that is the case, then what is po...

I have a large directory tree having over 30 sub-directories, each contains between 5 to 50 files. D:\Instal\Maintainance D:\Instal\Maintainance\Pl Files D:\Instal\Maintainance\Software D:\Instal\Maintainance\Pipe\Update D:\Instal\Misc D:\Instal\Misc\Emails D:\Instal\Misc\Sent Emails D:\Instal\Misc\...

Looking at the website of the product, it has a full download that is around 9 GB. How come you are downloading 2 terabytes? Does it take weeks for you to download that? The actual task you want help with is not clear to me, can you describe it a bit more? foxdrive Sir, I was making mistake because...

I have an application called "Snappy Driver Installer". The base application is only 11,250,858b. After running its Exe file, about 2tb data is downloaded from internet, irrespective of the files are present on local drive, or not. My Motherboard drivers get installed then. Finally this 2t...

Oh, I am now over delighted Sirs. I solved my problem without help of experts here. This does not mean that now I also am expert, by I must say all these experts pushed me to 'hit and run' experimenting, something I did not want to do myself. My thanks to all who participated especially foxdrive Sir...

OK sir, let me try that if i have some kind of problem I come back.
Thanks tons Sir.

Sir, this CMD window stays alive until i choose Yes/No and then both windows close. Can you start the DOS window minimised, so that it is not displayed. You can make a shortcut for the batch script and change the properties of that. Sir, I have already created a shortcut for the batch file and have...

I have a question which I explain. I have WinXp3 with latest updates. I have 4 partitions on my hard drive. I have a few diectories on various drives, which I often need to check and delete a few files (created by various appilcations). Example : Directory of D:\Instal\A.Setup\EDrive\Program Files\D...
