Delete Specific File Size using CMD prompt

[zaldhie]

Hi just want to ask a small favor if there's a way i can delete certain files using command prompt base on their file size. i uploaded the screenshot of the file that i know it's a virus and they have the same size 798kb. it is possible to delete this file using command prompt?

thanks and advance guys!

I guess this is what you need. This code should be in a batch file (put the code in a text file with the extension as .bat) and run it. I've added comments for the code.

@echo off

rem Select all files recursively from the current folder
for /r %%x in (*.*) do (
rem Check if the file size is the one you want (this must be in bytes, take the "Size" from the file properties, not "[DEL]Size on disk[/DEL]")
    if %%~zx == 542208 (
rem Delete the file, if it matches the size you want to delete
        del "%%x"
rem Show a message
        @echo Deleted %%x, Size %%~zx
    )
)

Hope this is what you want. I have also attached the batch script (make sure you change the size to what you want). Also if you want to delete files of a specific type, change the file filter (*.*) in the "for" statement.
