Something like this?

Code: Select all

@echo off
if exists "D:\UnwantedFolder" ( del /q "D:\UnwantedFolder" )

Yes something like this. but i am getting message that folder was unexpected at this time

There's a typo above, and the trailing slash checks for a folder as opposed to a file too.

RD is used for folders.

Code: Select all

@echo off
if exist "D:\UnwantedFolder\"  rd /s /q "D:\UnwantedFolder"

Sorry, my mind was somewhere else when i made that post.
foxidrive's solution is the correct way.


for /l %%a in (1 1 100) do ( echo: I will reread my written text before i post it! )
