Hi,
Just wondering if there is a CD burning program which has that feature. :) When I am doing backups of my documents (1000+ small files), It would be easier if the program can automatically delete the files from the hard disk after *successfully* burning them to a CDR. I haven't seen that feature in any of the burning programs I have tried so far, including Nero Burning ROM and Roxio Easy Media Creator. Cheers, McoreD. |
Nero asks when the burn is done if you want to save or delete the files.

Hi rikytik, may I ask what version of Nero is that? :)
The last version I tried was 6.3.0.0 and I didn't see such option. P.S: Now I am using Easy Media Creator 7.0 due to compatibility issues. |
I used the latest Nero Burning ROM build 6.3.1.15 and it still didn't ask for an option to delete the burnt files. Am I missing something here? :unsure:

@~*McoreD*~,
I think the reason there is no delete files after a "successful" burn is because of the difficulty in assuring that the burn was really successful. I would imagine that most if not all of the companies that make CD burning programs feel compelled to prefer data safety over convenience in this situation. By forcing you to delete the files manually, it saves them from having to take responsibility for the customer losing everything after a bad burn that fools their program into thinking it was OK. Even if it did not happen very often, a bad customer experience can (will) be spread far and wide by someone who is really pissed-off and highly motivated to warn everyone about another piece-of-crap software program. I think a smart company would never implement this dangerous/risky capability in CD burner software. Tomboy |
I agree with Tom. ;)

I agree Tomboy. :)
That's why I was wondering if it can be added as an option. I rephrased it and posted in Roxio support forums: When I am doing backups of my documents (1000+ files), I choose files from everywhere to fit them to a CD. It would be much easier if there is an option so that the program can automatically delete the files from the hard disk after *successfully* burning them to a CDR. Otherwise, it is very time consuming to go after each folder/file I burnt to the CD and delete them. ---- We'll see how it goes. Cheers, McoreD |

Does this bat file make any sense to you guys?
I got it as a reply from ieX. Quote:

I didn't read the question properly and was going to say that Alcohol 120% offers the delete after burning option as standard, but only for images. Good answer to the wrong question. Sorry! :)
