Answer 4

basic, i think... it runs in command prompt and i have managed to almost figure it out...

for /f "skip=2 eol=: delims=" %F in ('dir /b /o-d /a-d *.sav') do @move /Y "%F" "C:\Users\steve\AppData\Roaming\Surviving Mars\old mars"

but it wont work for .bat

Answer 5

not quite...
I'm trying to move everything but the most recent X number of files to a specific place.

Answer 6

figured it out

cmd < "C:\Users\steve\AppData\Roaming\Surviving Mars\Auto move.txt"

Auto move.txt says

CD C:\Users\steve\AppData\Roaming\Surviving Mars\save
for /f "skip=2 eol=: delims=" %F in ('dir /b /o-d /a-d *.sav') do @move /Y "%F" "C:\Users\steve\AppData\Roaming\Surviving Mars\old mars"
