    Does anyone know how to purge old versions of Pro/E data files (prt, asm,
    dwg) in Windows XP? Can it be done recursively with one command?

    Thanks,

    Jeff

    Hay Jeff,
    open explore,tools,folder options, file type.Now finde file folder and
    mark it,click advanced,then new and in "application used to
    perform action" go to browse and find file:
    "C:\PROGRAM FILES\PROE2001\BIN\PURGE.BAT" open it and put BLANKO *
    For action you can write what every you want (for example PURGE PROE).
    You can now purge any directory from explore or commander.All you need
    to do is to mark directory
    (from explore or commander) right mouse buten and find PURGE PROE.
    Regards

    I tried this and it's not showing up on the right-click. What do you
    mean by "...and put BLANKO *..." ? Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

    Hay,
    I'm sorry if I wasn't clear enough .It's my mistake.
    Copy this line:
    "C:\Program Files\proe2001\bin\purge.bat" *
    Change path by your need.If you do not understand
    contact me.My English is not so good and I wrote BLANKO
    instead BLANK.
    Regards
