Delete data from sharepoint list
I have a SP list with about 40k rows. I need to clean this and delete old rows.
But I can not find an good way to delete large amounts.
I basically can only work with 100-200 posts at a time and it lags very much.
Can I sync it to excel and then update it to SP?
Other solutions?

Oskar Kuus I believe PowerShell is your savior. You can use it in any way you want to fulfill your needs.
Delete a single item:

Delete multiple items:
Just a thought - You can create a view based off the certain condition (e.g. SP view for older items), and delete the items manually by selecting all.
Hope it helps.
