IDEA: monitor folder for max MB and get message

<< < (2/3) > >>

Candle:
Thank you for the help. I guess if it gives the gen size of the folder that would be close.
Most of the files would be zip or rar files .

chedabob:
What Im trying to do is find out where that value is coming from. If its just a simple matter of me expecting it in KB that are 1024 bytes, and its reading them out as 1000bytes in a KB, then Ill just modify the output. Ill do a bit mroe tommorrow.

Do you have any folders within your download folder? Or just files?

Candle:
Yes I guess they maybe a few of what I have open and look at but would just care about the zip, rar and exe files that are there.
Thanks for the help with this.

CodeTRUCKER:
I'm looking forward to this too!

skrommel:
 :) This should do it.

To compile it, download AutoHotkey.
