Hi,

I want to delete folders older than 5 days, as an example. I swear I searched the forum, but couldn't get an idea :-/

Thanks

You could do something like

If date created is not in the last 5 days
Then move to trash

Hi,

That's what I had, but it's not working:



This folder is not deleted:



Thanks

What does the preview show?

The rule does not appear under "Rule matched" for the folder.

Check the date created in Hazel's preview. Also, is this folder on a drive that is unusual? Network share? NTFS formatted?

It looks like all is fine, but still... "Date created" is not in the time range I set up:



The folder is a regular one, inside my Dropbox folder :-/

Oh, I see now. There is another rule matching the folder. You have to re-arrange the rules so that the rule you want matches it first. Right now, it's matching your subfolders rule.

Thanks! That was it
