Removal of old .BKF files

I backup my servers to disk and their backup are kept within their own folder. Some of the server backups only keep 2 weeks worth of BKF files before they are reused. Others keep over a months worth or longer. They all use the same media set which has a overwrite protection period of 2 weeks and Append period of Infinite. How do I get ride of the old .BKF files and how do I make them recycle every 2 weeks?

Helllo,

Please configure the overwrite protection period and append period.
