    BAT File That Deletes Files Below Specific Size

    I am wondering how to make a bat file that can delete all files below a certain size (in this case 10kb). I have a folder on my server that has game screenshots in it (taken by Punkbuster) and need to sort out the good shots from the bad, and figure this is easier than manually deleting thousands of files.. The "bad" shots (blanks with failed renders) range in size from 4kb-8kb, so the bat file can delete anything lower than 10kb with no issues. Is this possible, and if so how do I make one? Thanks for your help.


    *EDIT*
    I have found a bat file that can delete specific types/sizes, but it only allows you to delete file sizes of 0kb (empty text documents and such), and replacing the "0" with "10" or any other number hasn't worked for me so far.

    BAT file/Script to find and replace files

    Hey all....

    Can someone help me make the BAT script in the 2nd post above to be able to use MORE than "1" file?
    As it currently is, you can only replace one particular file.

    For example, I want in the command line to be able to write two files or more, and the script will find and replace all those 2 or more named files.
    Thanks much.

    P.S.... Is there a GUI that does file searching and replacing?
    I've spent hours searching on the net, and the only thing I can find are "text" search/replace and this BAT command, not actual "file" replacing. I find this amazing. *Frown How to create a BAT file that finds and deletes all files with the same extension :(

    How to create a BAT file that finds and deletes all files with the same extension

    Bat script to find and replace file in multiple subfolders

    Hello Everyone

    I've searched the forums for an answer specific to my current problem but can't seem to find the proper thing so sorry for opening a new thread (noob)

    I need to create a bat file that will scan multiple folders on my second harddrive D:\- find a file called renamed1.sin - delete it and replace it with a similar file I already have which is smaller in size and has different attributes i.e read only
    The folder structure for the intended file is like this -
    User\documents\rmdw 13\command0\renamed1.sin

    so the batch file would need to scan d:\ - find all instances of renamed1.sin - delete it and replace it with another renamed1.sin which is smaller and real only.

    Any help will be greatly apprecaited
