Remove files newer than X day and hour

Question

I want to remove files, more specifically, symbolic links of /usr/include that are newer than 2 JUN 22:27

How can I do this?

Answer 1

You might want to use find -newermt.

Make sure to review files to be removed first:

find /usr/include -type l -newermt "Jun 2 22:27"

Use -delete to perform actual removes.

find /usr/include -type l -newermt "Jun 2 22:27" -delete

Answer 2

I know the most voted solution may work for alott of people but it did not for me. I had to do it with unix timestamp.

 find . -type f -newermt "$(date -d @1494500000)" -delete

You can convert the timestamp easily with a unix timestamp converter.
