    How to delete Folders based on the name of the folder

    Q: How to delete Folders based on the name of the folder.

    The schema is:

    username_YYMMDD-HHMMSS

    is it possible to extract the date and use it as condition to check if it is older than x days and than delete the folder and all of its content?

    limagito file mover delete Folders based on the name

    A: Yes, this is possible using some Pascal Script.

    • Source should be a Windows Folder or Share. We used the following folder as Source:

    limagito file mover windows folder as source

    Or test content looks like:

    • Pascal Script Setup

    limagito file mover pascal script option

    • Enable ‘On Rule Begin’ Pascal Script option and copy/paste the script from here: link
      • Do not forget the adjust the ctOlderThanDay Const value. We used 500 days.
      • The Date format we used was YYMMDD

    • The %VSA (= Var String A) is used as directory filter. The previous Pascal Script will add the Subfolders to delete (older than x days) into this var.

    How to disable destinations in limagito file mover

    How to disable destinations in limagito file mover

    On request we added an option to Disable Destinations. At the moment (version v2025.7.25.0) this is possible for SFTP and FTP(S), but other Destinations will get this option soon. We’ll keep you posted.

    In version v2025.7.27.0 all Destinations include this Destination Mode option

    With multiple Destinations, a Destination in “Disabled Mode” will be skipped and handled as successful. When all Destinations would be in “Disabled Mode”, we’ll not remove the Source, even when function is set to “Move”.

    limagito file mover disable destinations

    In the following example the Rule has two Destinations: (1) SFTP and (2) FTP

    • Both Destinations are “Enabled” ( [E] )

    limagito file mover destination setup

    RunTime Log Result with both Destinations “Enabled”:

    • The Source file is copied to both Destinations

    limagito file mover runtime log

    When due to some reason you need to “Disable” a Destination, this is now possible using the “Destination Mode” option (Advanced Tab):

    • In our example we Disabled the first Destination (SFTP)

    limagito file mover disable destinations

    Notice the first Destination gets a [D] of “Disabled” prefix:

    limagito file mover destination setup

    RunTime Log Result with first Destination “Disabled”:

    • The Source file is copied only to the second Destination (FTP)

    limagito file mover runtime log result

    If you would “Disable” all available Destination you’ll get the following Runtime log information:

    limagito file mover runtime log

    If you need any help with this new option, please let us know.
