How to permanently delete all files in a folder?

Hi,

I would like to know how I can delete all files in a folder using Hazel. Here is what I need to achieve:

- Permanently delete all files in the Documents, Downloads, and Desktop folder if the file is older than 2 hours (Not just going to trash but permanently deleting files)

OR

- Permanently delete all files in the abovementioned folders upon logoff using Hazel. Not interested in messing around with Automator/Apple scripts etc, if possible.

Thanks in advance

There's no built-in action to permanently delete files. You can have Hazel purge files from the trash but they need to go to the trash first.

Thanks for the reply.

Ignore the "permanently delete" part, how can I delete all files in a specific folder and move the files to the trash based on the age of the files? Like doing an "hourly cleanup" of a folder?

You can do something like "Date added is not in the last X hours/day/etc, Move to trash" should do it. If you need to go into subfolders, check the manual on how to get Hazel to do that.
