-
- Description: FSD is a Windows file search/delete utility.
- Author: Clyde W. Grotophorst
- Registration: None, FSD is a freeware utility
-
- ====================================================
-
- To install: If you have the ZIP file with VBRUN300.DLL
- included, move that file to your windows system directory
- (typically C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM) and then put FSD.EXE
- wherever you like. If you already have a copy of
- VBRUN300.DLL on your machine, just put FSD someplace
- and you're ready.
-
- FSD is a simple utility program that collects all the
- files (up to a maximum of 2700) on a drive that match a
- user-supplied file spec. Files appear in the top window
- as a match is found (you can interrupt the search at any
- time by pressing the Interrupt button--names of files found
- thus far are displayed in the top window).
-
- If you're just looking for a file, that's the end of it.
- Just press the EXIT button when you're ready to shut the
- program down.
-
- But, if you want to delete a few of the files, double click on any
- name in the top window and moves it down to the bottom (if
- you change your mind, double click on the filename in the bottom
- window and it moves back up). Click on the 'Delete files' button to
- delete all the files shown in the 'to be deleted' window.
-
- You can move ALL files from the Match List to the Delete list
- by pressing the 'move all files to delete list' button.
-
- If you want to be asked "Are you sure" on the delete command,
- just check the Verify delete checkbox...
-
- To view file info (name, size, last modified date), just highlight
- a file in either box (a single click of your left mouse button).
-
- Use with caution...FSD will delete files without concern for
- their intrinsic value to you. We've tried to make it a bit more
- difficult to accidentally delete a lot of files--you have to double
- click on the one's you want to move into the 'to be deleted' holding bin
- and you have the ability to empty it out anytime before you press the
- Delete Files button.
-
- FSD will warn you before deleting a hidden, system, and/or read-only
- file.
