I'm trying to run a Maintenance Cleanup Task to remove .bak files older than 2 days (simple enough).

Been trying all variety of .bak, BAK, .*., and editing the path, but the files are still not getting removed even though I receive a "job succeeded" log message.

I'm not at the point where I believe it's a folder permission issue.

How do I make sure my SA has the proper permissions to remove files from a folder?

Thanks.
