This is a Windows implementation of the logrotate utility found in Linux platforms. The goal is to use the same command line parameters and files as the Linux version.

I've often used logrotate on Linux so was really pleased to find a Windows version. Configuring it was just a case of copying the sample in the documentation and replacing the placeholders with info about my program (a service running SimpleDLNA by Nils Maier). I scheduled a task to run daily and the log rotates as expected. It's nothing fancy but it does exactly what it's supposed to do with no fuss.
