How to delete files?
« on: December 22, 2012, 02:34:17 pm »

MC18 sounds amazing;)  Very pleased.  

Love to have a delete from disk option for the recently imported.  Something more than a remove from list option.

Anyways, thanks so much;)

Can you clarify what you mean by "determined bad?".

Its a prompt I'm getting after import files to library.

I can locate on hard drive, but those files have to be deleted manually.

Ah, ok.  There is a special database, called the Bad database, where files that could not be imported for some reason (corrupt, analysis errors, etc.) are located so that MC doesn't keep trying to re-import, etc., and cause continuing errors.

Please see this portion of a thread, reading the posts that follow.  You're going to create a Smartlist, entering the expression shown in the post:
