Purge IIS Logs Older than 3 Days

Summary

This script will remove IIS log files older than 3 days from the path C:/inetpub/logs/LogFiles. The script will provide log files that show which files were not deleted from that folder that are older than 3 days.

The script runs the PowerShell command to perform the task.

Additionally, the path and threshold are defined within the script, rather than in the .ps1 file.
