Nasty File Search not Working/Crashes

[Grommit]

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 ?

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 ?!?

first time I've seen Edugeek stumped :-)
