Alex,
When I realized you did not want to monitor it real-time, I thought I could write the script myself, bad thinking, my scripting abilities are completely rusty <g>
Anyways, I wrote something that should get you started, it is missing the ownership information and, as I said, I do not write scripts very often, so take it with a grain of salt
Create a file with a vbs extension and paste the code below, and to call it use
C:>YourFile YourRootFolder YourDesiredSize
I am not sure how big can YourDesiredSize be
Option ExplicitOption Explicit
Dim oArgs, oRootFolder, oFSO, oFolder, nSize, nDays
Set oArgs = WScript.Arguments
if oArgs.Count = 0 then
WScript.Echo "Folder name required"
end if
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
on error resume next
Set oRootFolder = oFSO.GetFolder(oArgs(0))
On Error Goto 0
if oArgs.Count = 2 then
nSize = clng(oArgs(1))
else
nSize = 10000
end if
if oArgs.Count = 3 then
nDays = cInt(oArgs(2))
else
nDays = 1
end if
if IsObject(oRootFolder) then
CheckFiles oRootFolder, nSize, nDays
else
WScript.Echo "Folder " & oArgs(0) & " not found"
end if
Sub CheckFiles(oFolder, nSize, nDays)
Dim oFile
for each oFile in oFolder.Files
if oFile.Size >= nSize and DateDiff("h", oFile.DateCreated, Now) <= nDays then
WScript.Echo oFile.Path & " " & oFile.Size & " " & oFile.DateCreated & " " & DateDiff("h", oFile.DateCreated, Now)
end if
next
for each oFolder in oFolder.SubFolders
CheckFiles oFolder, nSize, nDays
next
end sub
[Update]
I added another parameter for the age of the file in days
