Might be a hard "Subject" line to understand.
Also had a hard time finding the right search words if this already have been posted.

My case here i that i am screenshoting my screen every minut 24h a day.
It gets automaticly stored in folder based on the date.
Like :
2023_01_06
2023_01_07
2023_01_08
and so forth.

Now, after 2 years of doing this..... i just now realise i dont need to keep the screenshots outside working hours.
An answere could be. "Why did you screenshot 24/7 and not just working hour?" :D and yes! that would be smart, and i will do that from now on.
But that does not fix my two years of screenshots that i want to cleanup :lol:

Everything might not be the right tool for this. But it have helped me in so many other cases taht i tought it was worth a shot.

Here is something that works. for one date.
pathtofolder\2023_01_06\" !dm:2023-01-06T08:00..2023-01-06T17:00

So it will be really time consuming going trough all the days like this. Might there be a wildcard i can use in the folder path and in the date, to make it itterate trough them all?

Thank you.
