 I need help with trying to figure out how to make a loop that goes down 1 file every time the loop is done.

    I'm unsure what you are trying to accomplish so I cannot provide a more complete answer.

     

    However, If you are looping through files, you just need to create the "files" object and then loop over that object...

     

    For each file in Files.
