Oudated games remover
This is a simple command line program that compares folder names.
Not sure if this is helpful for someone else, but I had the problem that I forgot to remove old game versions. They cluttered my games folder and took unnecessary storage space.
So I made a program which scans the folder where you run it from, and iterates over the folders inside. If it encounters a folder with a very similar name and different version, it asks you if you want to remove one or more of the folders or skip them. For example:
Here you could write the folder number to remove (if you want to remove multiple folders, just separate them by spaces) or press enter to skip:
Because there is no standard way of naming game folders, this is not a perfect solution, but I found that it works very well for me and finds almost all similar games.
I also added the source code if you don't trust a random .exe from the internet (which I totally understand)
