The rmdir /s command deletes directories containing files and subdirectories.
For more information about the rmdir command, see Rmdir.

Eric, as a last resort, you can copy Deltree.exe from an older windows 98
directory into Windows\system32 of XP.
It still works just fine.

The closest tool is rd (rmdir) with the /s switch. You also have a /s
switch on del.

Win9x DELTREE run still correctly in WXP. I prefer it because you can

control deletion of folder that you can't do with rd /s.
Your firstname sound like a french firstname. I can send you a french
version.

Is there a command like deltree for XP?

I need to put it in a batch file I will be using on a regular basis.

Thanks
Do a Google search and you can locate it. The Win9x version runs fine on
XP if you know someone that still has it (or a CD to expand the file). I
put it on every computer I configure and have the temp folders cleaned out
on startup.

Using DEL won't remove empty folders (it will delete files in folders but
not remove the folders themselves). The only makeshift way is to use
RD & MD together like:
RD c:\temp
MD c:\temp
but I like DELTREE better.

Have no idea why it was dropped, especially since nothing else works as
well.
