Hi everyone!
I have this script that I wrote and I need some comments on it. I want to clean (delete) old files in the temp directory and it seems to work on my local machine but when I run it on a test server (as administrator) I'll get errors on files were not found (I believe it's File::Find) but if I do a windoze search I can't find the files either (folder options set to view EVERYTHING) I'm also wondering which way would be the CORRECT way to actually delete the files on windoze and how can I get around the files not found?
Thanks!

use strict;
use File::Find;
use File::stat;
use Time::localtime;
my $NodeName = Win32::NodeName();
my $path = ("C:\\TEMP\\");
my $LogDir = ("C:\\LOGS\\"); # log folder
#date and time
&TimeStamp;
sub TimeStamp {
my $tm = localtime;
my $Date = sprintf ("%02d_%02d_%04d", $tm->mon+1, $tm->mday, $tm->
+year+1900);
my $Log = $Date."_".$NodeName.".txt";
open(LOG,">>$LogDir\\$Log") || die "TCleaner.pl can't open $Log fo

find (\&unwanted, $path);
}
sub unwanted {
# Change the age to desired days past to delete
my $age = 1;
my $atime = int(-A _);
my $mod_time = int(-M _);
if (!(/^\./) && $mod_time > $age && $atime > $age) {
print LOG "going to delete these! $_ modified days old -->$mo
+d_time\n";
#system ("del $_ /Q");
#unlink($_);
}else{
print LOG "KEEPING $_ access days old ---> $atime\n";
}
} # END
