Auto delete file?

I'm looking for a program that will automatically delete a file(folder)
on my hard drive after a set time. I already have 'Steganos internet
trace destructor.' Any program out there that would any me to set Steganos
to automatically destruct a folder after a set time?

What I really want is to have the folder on a countdown to destruction
if I don't reset a 'timer' after a set period, like a week.

Any ideas? Thaks in advance.

I would find out if Steganos Internet Trace Destructor has any command
line options to run it without the GUI. Then you can set it to runt hat
particular command line through the windows task scheduler.

I must be missing something here (I am NOT familiar with Steganos) -- what
is wrong with using the task scheduler to run a DOS command to delete the
file or folder in question? Or, for that matter, how is your suggestion
different from doing that?

With Steganos you can only get it to work manually. You have to choose &
delete/shred. It can't be set up to do it timed.

I am searching for a program that can delete/shred a file on it's own
(at a set time) making it un-recoverable.

I guess its just the stuff that steganos destroys...you could easily go
and find all of those folders and do it yourself as you suggested.
Stegnos is like a privacy wipe, gets rid of a bunch of internet stuff,
like cookies and temp files.
