savio,

i think kazun has answered this.  in powershell dir command alias get-childitem.  d:\files needs changed starting directory logs are.  "-for" force , "-rec" recurse subdirectorires.  "?" "where-object" alias checking 7 day old/older files are not (the "!") containers (not directories).  directories skipped recursed into.  if current file in pipe makes far through checks forcefully deleted.  in powershell del alias remove-item.  "$_" variable current file being checked in pipe.

here kazun's code rewritten long hand without aliases example ......

get-childitem  c:\websphere\applogs  -force -recurse | where-object {$_.lastwritetime -le (get-date).adddays(-7) -and !$_.psiscontainer} | remove-item -force

dir alias not use same switches old dos dir command.  uses switches of powershell  get-childitem command.  confused me when first started in powershell.

get-help get-childitem
