- 1Users will love this. I have seen users leaving all the kind of files in their desktops. A colleague of mine had a case where a sweet lady told him she though the bin/trashcan picture was meant "to be a place to store my work files". Have you any specific question why you think it might be wrong? Validating everything every step of the way seems strange (do more testing if unsure, find volunteers)Rui F Ribeiro– Rui F Ribeiro2019-01-16 19:38:57 +00:00Commented Jan 16, 2019 at 19:38

- Thanks for the heads-up. Currently we're on a mix of Sierra and High Sierra, no Mojave. The dialog is more of a "nice to have", I'm mainly trying to figure out why desktop folders older than 30 days are not being deleted using the script in it's current state.animism– animism2019-01-16 22:06:21 +00:00Commented Jan 16, 2019 at 22:06

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
