      I use Security Monitor Pro to perform recording, and take photos on a motion trigger for four IP cameras. Generally, I review the captured files every day, so I don’t want to keep the older files. Is there any way to automatically remove recordings and photos from my PC that are a few days old?

        You can configure Security Monitor Pro to delete the captured media files older than a few days.

        Click on the Settings icon on the toolbar and go to the ‘Video and Photo’ settings tab. Select the ‘Auto delete files older than N days’ option. Enter the number of days and save the changes.

        The media files captured before the specified number of days will be deleted automatically.
        Note: This option is recommended only when you are regularly reviewing the videos and images taken from all the cameras.
