That should solve your problem.




If you don't mind me asking, what exactly are you deleting?

I understand the commands except the "*.*" part (which to me looks like a wildcard to include all files and extentions), and the "/y" switch (I've never seen/heard of this before).

I know "*.exe" wildcard will parse all exe files, for example.

So I guess what in the root directory are you having him delete




*.* is an easy way to del everything in a directory

So say you in C:\pics

type del *.*
and by by pics
never seen the y switch either, atleast there isn't one on 2000
