Delete Old Files After:

0 Days


Semantically speaking, for an average user and newbie like me, it is possible to set the delete files after 0 days which does not make any sense at all. When, within this stipulated "0 Days" period will the old files be deleted and I think the minimum should be 1 Day (maybe 6 hours or whatever) otherwise if 0 Days do mean something else like infinity or disable, make sure there is a hover tip to inform the end user about this option. At this point, I have no idea what delete files after 0 days even suggest.

It would make sense to:
-Either set the minimum at 1
-Display an additional label on 0:

"Day" becomes "Day (logout)"
or "Day (After logging out)"
