Show and Delete empty Drive folders

[Colin Dinshaw]

Hi, I want to delete all the empty folders in a users My Drive. I found two commands but they keep failing with error "The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect."

Can someone give me an example of what to enter for each command please

Print a list of empty files in my Drve:

gam <UserTypeEntity> print emptydrivefolders [todrive <ToDriveAttribute>*]

Delate:

gam <UserTypeEntity> delete emptydrivefolders

Colin,

Show the two commands you are trying; substitute us...@domain.com for the actual address.

Hi Ross, thanks for setting up advanced GAM, it is a great tool!!

If I want to set it up on another users computer can I just copy the environmental variables and the GAM folders in the C Drive across to the new users computer?

[Ross Scroggs]

Yes.
