Actually, this answer is from Jesper Rønn-Jensen at http://justaddwater.dk/2011/03/01/easy-delete-all-svn-subfolders-in-windows-explorer/

I thought it was so much easier I'd share. I'm converting several projects from .SVN to .GIT, so this was great. It adds a menu item to Explorer so you can remove the folders. Create a .reg file, and import it.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
;
; Running this file will give you an extra context menu item in Windows Explorer
; "Delete SVN folders"
;
; For the selected folder, it will remove all subfolders named ".svn" and their content
