Hi all,
Just a quick one... after some recommendations for some software to do automatic archiving.

I just want to to simply shift a bunch of files from one folder to another after the files have been there for a set amount of time.

There seems to be many many options so after recommendations of ones you have used personally and know to work well.

Freeware is preferred but if there is a really really good one then I would pay. 

Oh and for Windows..

Thanks in advance,
Sam

Robocopy is built in to Windows 7 or newer - this link has a good summary of some of the switches - it has loads of switches but these may do what you need:

 

         /MAXLAD:n : MAXimum Last Access Date - exclude files unused since n.

 

/MINLAD:n : MINimum Last Access Date - exclude files used since n.

 

(If n < 1900 then n = n days, else n = YYYYMMDD date).
