Deleting only old System Logs

Hi,

I got lots of Windows Error Logs on a machine.
I try to delete only Logs that are older than a month,
but I did not found any possibility to do that ....

Does anyone know a way to do that?

Leave it alone it already removes old logs when new ones come in.
Simply adjust the maximum size.

Many of those logs are only of interest to a historian or a wood-chopper.

I'll tell you what I did once and contrary to what others thought and say, my computer did not crash and burn.

I selected the C drive in explorer, In the search box on the right end, I typed filename:*.log
After the explorer found all the logs then Ctrl + A to select all and Ctrl + D to delete.

Found about 1GB of logs using the Windows HD Clean UP tool
on a PC with about 2 MB left on C:....
so I don't want to wait for something.

I'll look if i find the max size.

And some of them maybe help some dubugger ... who cares, but
it doesn't help me with the problem

I've never seen one run with only 2MB of free space left.

Perhaps there is a little more.

If your objective is to free up space, then :
CCleaner
CleanMgr.exe,
powercfg -h off which eliminates your hibernate file


Threre are other things you can do but some of them can turn around and bite you later. Some won't buy you that much space.

Do you have the hard disk divided into partitions? Iff yes, what's the size and nbr of free bytes for each of them?
