File operations in scheduler

[mlmmn]

The ability to: move, delete and optionally rename files/folders from the schedule level (of course macros should be keeped).

The ability to: move, delete and optionally rename files/folders from the schedule level (of course macros should be keeped). 

You can already do it:
1. Create a .bat file with required commands, eg.:

; move or rename
move C:\oldfile.ext D:\newfile.ext

; delete
del C:\file.ext

2. Create scheduler event, click Wizard button, select "Start a program" and select the .bat file you've created.

Of course! Thanks!

Although this is an old topic, I would like to re-open the discussion. I want to be able to move files based on the variable substitution available in scheduler.

For example:

"move C:progs/Jazz?y-?m-?d C:progs to repeat/*.*"

You can use the run command to achieve it.

An example:
run cmd.exe /C move /Y D:\file_?yyyy.mp3 D:\new_dir

It uses the move Windows command, the /Y switch makes it overwrite the files without asking questions.

This worked, thanks as always.
