Unraid noob here. I am not a smart man and I've made a huge mistake. I finished setting up Radarr and all is well. I've modified my quality settings to get the best quality files I could get my hands on however I mistakenly checked the box to download full disk images which are around 40GB each.

 

I didn't realize the error of my ways until it was too late and my storage has been completely cannibalized by these files. I need to remove them but there are so many (literally hundreds) that I need an efficient way to identify these files by partial file name, file type, or size then remove them.

 

Is there a plugin or container that would fit my needs? Version: 6.9.2

There's lots of apps for Windows that'll do that for you (just google it), and then run the program against the particular share.

You could use a Find command in Linux or simply use windows Search against the share like Squid said and when they all show up click delete. 

 

For find

Windows Search in File Explorer

Depending on your level of Linux I would highly encourage the Windows search just to make sure you don't wipe out things that you didn't want to. I honestly use Windows search a lot unless its something I delete often then I have a few find commands in some code, but I've tested it many times on. test folder and some files before I unleash it on my server.
