Is it possible that I set a parameter one day before today?
So I read out the system time:
set ARCHIV=%DATE:~0,2%%DATE:~2,2%%DATE:~4,6%
And now the output is 12.06.2014 (DD.MM.YYYY)
And I want that the output is 11.06.2014
I really don't know if it's possible to subtract the output date with one day.
I had found only commands to subtract it with another date.
Regards
Try below code for delete the file with name of one day less than current date (format YYYYMMDD)
#echo off

How can I subtract 1 day from this cmd code:
%date:~10,4%%date:~4,2%%date:~7,2%
Every post I see here says I need to use power shell and etc. I just would like to remove 1 day from here.
The cmd returns this:
20180227
And I would like to:
20180226
I don't know about coding but this work for me:
set YY=%date:~10,4%
set MM=%date:~4,2%
set DD=%date:~7,2%
set /a DD1= %DD% - 1
echo %YY%%MM%%DD1%
Here is two code options. I am using functions in both to get the current date and time. If you don't need that you can remove that.
This is the fastest of the two options. It converts the date to a Julian date to do the math, then converts it back to a normal date.
#echo off

REM Get the current date
REM Will return variables YY, YYYY, MM, DD, HH, Min and Sec

The second option uses a trick with the xcopy command to check if the date is a valid date. So it is technically not doing any date math like the previous solution which is converting to the Julian date to do that date math. This option only does subtraction. The first option can add or subtract.
#echo off
setlocal
REM set the number of days to substract
SET DAYS=180
REM Call function to check if the date is valid.

set rand=%random%
md "%temp%\dummy%rand%\empty%rand%"
REM Get todays date
for /f "tokens=2 delims==" %%a in ('wmic OS Get localdatetime /value') do set "dt=%%a"
REM set year month and day into its own variables.
set /a y=%dt:~0,4%
set /a m=1%dt:~4,2%
set /a d=1%dt:~6,2%
:loop
if "%day%"=="0" (

)

I am trying to change the code in order to get two days ago date using the batch file. In this example, I can take today date
for /f "tokens=2 delims==" %%I in ('wmic os get localdatetime /format:list') do set datetime=%%I
set LogDateTime=%datetime:~0,8%_%datetime:~8,6%
However, I don't know how to modify the code to get two days ago data. I am not looking for PowerShell, and not any other solution. We have to use only the batch.
You need to convert the date into a Julian Date to do date math in batch files. Here are two function. One to get the current date and then one to do that date math.
#echo off

How to subtract one day in D.
I want to delete one day old file,the file name starting with olddayfile_20140323.txt in same code.
Am using below code for Deleting D (D:current day file) files.

del test2_%1%2%3*
del test3_%1%2%3*
Please note below script is working,but it's working only modified date files.
forfiles.exe /p C:\FX\out /s /m olddayfile_* /d -1 /c "cmd /c del #file"
Please suggest me am new for Batch script.
