Hi all, I havent posted here for a while, anyways. I started a new job a few weeks ago (IT Technician) and one of the first issues ive been asked to investigate it the posibility of putting a time delay or something along those lines then deleting the file after say a month. This is not a security risk it is mearly a system clear up solution and partly data protection but thats not a major issue. Is there any software that you can load folders into that will store them and then delete them???
Please help I would really like to make a good impression with the first issue ive been given. Thanks for you help. Gary

Is this the sort of thing you are looking for here?

 

That is the sort of thing i need, the only problem is that it requires .NET framework and this is just going to be installed on a few local machines. Thanks for your help though.

 

Search through Google that's how I found the above.

 

I found something called Times up.

I found it here. Its a list of different tools used for removal.You may want to look though them since I didn't search though all of them.

Cheers guys, ive also found one that is quite simple to use if anyone else wants it. you can get your own copy at www.wajasoft.com Its a cool little freeware package.
Cheers again!

 

I believe on a Windows Active Directory network, deleted objects are "tombstoned" for a certain period of time to allow the changes to propogate the system via AD replication. During that time period, an object that was accidentally deleted can be restored.
