    Default Nasty File Search not Working/Crashes

    Hi

    just opened Nasty File Search that I downloaded from Edugeek..

    When I run in not in delete mode if make a log showing the paths to all the "nasty" files..


    When I run it in delete mode it has a runtime error..

    "Run-Time error 53
    File not found"

    click OK and the program closes..

    Any idea whats wrong?

    Also can I use XXCOPY to "MOVE" nasty files in their file structure from the students area to another Server where I can hold the files for a couple of days before deleting them ?

    Default Re: NFS not Working

    I have had this problem recently, and what is weird is that it used to work fine

    Never really looked into why it was happening though because it was only a few files I had to delete

    What is the switch in XXCOPY that deletes the source file on copy ?

    I am looking for a string that will copy the file from source (multiple folders in tree) to destination and delete only the file (not folder) from the source ?

    xxcopy.exe e:\users\students\01\*.bmp \\compaqsvr\fserver1\dump\
    /S /RCY /R /PD0


    That is my string.. but the results concern me as it says it is deleting directories at the scorce... but they seem to bee there when I look ?!?
