Deleting Empty Folders Sun Oct 19, 2014 2:50 pm • by d32bus
Hi

I've tried going through the other advice that i've found on the forum but I can't really understand so I was wondering if anyone could tailer the answer to my specific problem.

I have a number of rules running on my download folder which are renaming and moving files to other folders. But once i've done these rules I would like it to check if the folder that has been downloaded is no empty and if so move it to the trash. I can get it to do this if I put it as the first rule on the list but this stops all the others working. If I put it at the end it doesn't work.

Can point me in the right direction?

I would put a screenshot in but i'm not sure how. :shock:

Thanks

Rob

The first rule to match is the one that gets run so you need to structure your rules with that in mind. So, you need to prevent the previous rules from being too general such that subsequent rules don't get a chance. Post more details if you still can't figure it out.
