Delete all but the three latest folders possible?

Hi there,

I'm generating automated backups on a weekly basis and I'm looking for a receipt to delete all but the latest three backup-folders.

Is that possible?

Cheers,
Bastian

Maybe just run a rule that says if kind is folder and create date is not in the last 3 weeks THEN move to trash. That should keep all last three folders if you are really creating them weekly.

You can do something like "Date added/created/modified is not among the 3 most recent, move to trash". You'll have to figure out which date attribute works best for you here.
