Script to Delete Files Older Than 7 Days
Today, I created the folders X and Y. Files in folder X that will be precisely 7 days old from now forth should be transferred from X to folder Y after 7 days, and so on. How to do that?

Actually, the command lines to move the files older than 7 days are similar with delete files older than x days. Run your CMD on your computer, and type in forfiles /p [source_path] /m *.* /s /d [-x_days] /c "cmd /c move @file [destination_path]". You should change "source_path" to the folder path which you want to move all the files recursively. Also need to change "x_days" to "7_days". "destination_path" means the folder path where you want to move all the files. It is possible to schedule this command with other automated tasks, which can be saved as a .bat file.
If you accidentally delete some files or move the files to somewhere you cannot find, you can use a data recovery utility to get back the lost files. EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard can help you do that quickly and safely. Unlimited data may be recovered from deleted, hidden, and lost files. RAW partition recovery is also supported by this utility. You can retrieve the lost files within three steps:
1. After preparing the software, you can launch it and scan the target hard drive or partition where your lost files are located. This software also supports SD card recovery, memory card recovery, and external hard drive recovery.
2. The files will show up during the scanning, and you can choose the files you want to recover in this step.
3. The last part is previewing the files and recovering them. You will only need to press the "Recover" button, and all the selected files will be recovered immediately.
Use EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard to recover deleted or lost files easily and quickly.
