Deleting old files in Windows 10 using forfiles
Question
I am trying to delete old files and folders in my Google Drive using a bat script on Windows 10 Home.
forfiles /M *.* /P "C:\Users\bruker\Google Drive\" /S /D -180 /C "cmd /c del /F /Q @path"
Gives the error message:
ERROR: Invalid argument/option - '/F'. Type "FORFILES /?" for usage.
Anyone have a solution for this?

The quotes aren't needed. Both forfiles ... /C cmd /c del /F /Q @path and forfiles ... /C (cmd /c del /F /Q @path) should work.
