Summary

When using the File Manager Rules to monitor files within sub-folders, files may not be found.

Technical Background

Example

When setting up File Management Rules to Monitor the following path: C:\Temp\*.* for files with the Last Modified date older than 15 minutes.

Files within the C:\Temp\ directory that meet this condition will break the rule, the files within the C:\Temp\Temp1 and C:\Temp\Temp2 sub-directories do NOT break the rule. It does not appear that they are even being monitored by the File Management Rule.
