I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble. It sounds like you need a method to filter files by weekend dates. You mentioned using file explorer's advanced search and found a workaround, but it didn't work for you. You're wondering if there are other reliable tools available to accomplish this task.

Support this idea, PowerShell is the quickest method. @No sleep Neftali Enter folder to sort $dir = Read-Host "Enter folder to sort" $dest = Read-Host "Enter folder to move unwanted files to" $ItemsToRemove = Get-ChildItem $dir -Force -Recurse -ErrorAction Ignore | Where-Object {($_.CreationTime.DayOfWeek -eq "Saturday") -or ($_.CreationTime.DayOfWeek -eq "Sunday"))} | Move-Item -Destination $dest -force "`n" Write-Host "Items moved: `n" $ItemsToRemove.Name "`n" If you wish to delete instead of relocate, change line 5 to this: $ItemsToRemove | Remove-Item -Recurse -Force EDIT: Added a list of items moved Removed on Saturday and Sunday.ps1
