Maintenance Plan does not delete old .bak files

I am using the maintenance cleanup task wizard to delete old .bak files older than 4 weeks, but it is not working.

I chose:

connection: local server connection

type: backup files

search files based on an extension

path to files

ext = bak

Delete files older than 4 weeks.

I run it and it never removes any of the files--what gives.What version on SQL you are using. IF you have installed SQL2005 SP2 before march 6th, then there is a know bug on cleanup task. You can download the latest SP2 build and install.

This problem has been fixed in the latest Cumulative Update. Call MS Customer Service and ask for the SQL Server cumulative update. There is no charge for this service.
