Hard drives fill up with junk. We often don't know where it comes from, and it's a pain to get rid of. Programs like
Microsoft SQL Server promise to remove old backups as part of the maintenance plan, but don't always get it right. Employees put a whole load of junk on the file server and never bother to delete their old files. The list goes on.
Hunter-Killer was originally developed for the
Sowetan newspaper about a decade ago, when a method was needed to remove old stories from journalists directories. That was a DOS-based version; this one is written in
Visual Basic, and can be used in a batch file or interactively.
Hunter.exe does not delete or change anything; the
user has to run killer.bat to do this. I have added some menu options to make it easier.

What a load of rubbish! What's wrong with using the "move" option in WinZip?
