    select empty.folders not working?

    I am trying to delete all empty folders in a directory with this script:

    load <default>
    load "<directory>" "<directory>"
    expand all
    select empty.folders
    delete recyclebin=no all


    <directory> is the same directory on both sides. Shouldn't this delete all empty folders? It is not working for me.

    Hello,

    It seems you've found a BC3 bug. The script above should work, but currently does not. As a workaround, you can install BC2 (which, if you need for more than 30 usable days, please contact us at sales or [email protected]) and use the same script with it to delete your empty folders.

    The BC2 install should not effect your BC3 install or settings. By default, it will install to a separate directory.

    I will pass the issue on to our developers and they'll take a look into it.

      Hello,

      This should be fixed in the next release of BC3. Let us know if you still have any trouble. Until then you can use a copy of BC2 and the same script file to delete your empty folders.

          Hello, I have tried this script on the new release (3.1.3). It still does not appear to be working. In the change log, it states that select empty.folders is now working. Perhaps it's the delete part that is not working.
