Batch file. Delete all files and folders in a directory

Question

I want to have a batch file that will delete all the folders and files in my cache folder for my wireless toolkit.

Currently I have the following:

cd         


        

Answer 1

IF EXIST "C:\Users\tbrollo\j2mewtk\2.5.2\appdb\RMS" (
    rmdir "C:\Users\tbrollo\j2mewtk\2.5.2\appdb\RMS" /s /q
)

This will delete everything from the folder (and the folder itself).

Answer 2

Try the following; it works for me.

I have an application which dumps data in my "C:\tmp" folder, and the following works the best for me. It doesn't even ask Yes or No to delete the data. I have made a schedule for it to run after every 5 minutes

cd "C:\tmp"

del *.* /Q
