Date Last Matched issues Sat Aug 21, 2021 6:59 pm • by andy4222
Hi Everyone, need some help with creating this rule. What I'm to do:

- For any new file in the Downloads directory I want to remove to replace " " (spaces) in the filename with "_" (underscore)
- I do not want this rule to apply to the files that were added/modified/renamed in the last 5 mins.

For some reason, these rules I created did not work

Rule1: (this immediately renames the file. I tried adding a "Date Last Matched is not blank, and that would fail for all files
Code: Select all
- If all of the following conditions are met
     - Any File
     - Date Last Matched in not in the last 2 minutes


Rule 2: (this worked for new files but applies immediately to renamed files)
Code: Select all
- If all of the following conditions are met
     - Any File
     - Date Added in not in the last 2 minutes
     - Date Last Modified in not in the last 2 minutes


Can someone please help with this?

Also, how does Date Last Matched work?
