looking for a way to perform the following:
Start > Run > "%TEMP% > Delete everything (skipping any conflicts).
so Far I have
@echo off
start %TEMP%
DEL *.*
I suppose I could use CD to get to the folder, the thing I'm wondering is if there are any instances where it cannot delete an a dialog box comes up, I want to skip these.
Thanks for the help! Liam

batch-file
@echo off
del /s /f /q %windir%\temp\*.*
rd /s /q %windir%\temp
md %windir%\temp
del /s /f /q %windir%\Prefetch\*.*
rd /s /q %windir%\Prefetch
md %windir%\Prefetch
del /s /f /q %windir%\system32\dllcache\*.*
rd /s /q %windir%\system32\dllcache
md %windir%\system32\dllcache
del /s /f /q "%SysteDrive%\Temp"\*.*
rd /s /q "%SysteDrive%\Temp"
md "%SysteDrive%\Temp"
del /s /f /q %temp%\*.*
rd /s /q %temp%
md %temp%
del /s /f /q "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\History"\*.*
rd /s /q "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\History"
md "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\History"
del /s /f /q "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files"\*.*
rd /s /q "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files"
md "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files"
del /s /f /q "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp"\*.*
rd /s /q "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp"
md "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp"
del /s /f /q "%USERPROFILE%\Recent"\*.*
rd /s /q "%USERPROFILE%\Recent"
md "%USERPROFILE%\Recent"
del /s /f /q "%USERPROFILE%\Cookies"\*.*
rd /s /q "%USERPROFILE%\Cookies"
md "%USERPROFILE%\Cookies"
@echo off
RD %TEMP%\. /S /Q
::pause
explorer %temp%
This batch can run from anywhere. RD stands for Remove Directory but this can remove both folders and files which available to delete.
@echo off
del /s /f /q c:\windows\temp\*.*
rd /s /q c:\windows\temp
md c:\windows\temp
del /s /f /q C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch
del /s /f /q %temp%\*.*
rd /s /q %temp%
md %temp%
deltree /y c:\windows\tempor~1
deltree /y c:\windows\temp
deltree /y c:\windows\tmp
deltree /y c:\windows\ff*.tmp
deltree /y c:\windows\history
deltree /y c:\windows\cookies
deltree /y c:\windows\recent
deltree /y c:\windows\spool\printers
del c:\WIN386.SWP
cls
Just use
del /f /q C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\temp
And it will work.
Note: It will delete the whole folder however, Windows will remake it as it needs.
The following batch commands are used to delete all your temp, recent and prefetch files on your System.
Save the following code as "Clear.bat" on your local system
*********START CODE************
@ECHO OFF
del /s /f /q %userprofile%\Recent\*.*
del /s /f /q C:\Windows\Prefetch\*.*
del /s /f /q C:\Windows\Temp\*.*
del /s /f /q %USERPROFILE%\appdata\local\temp\*.*
/Below command to Show the folder after deleted files
Explorer %userprofile%\Recent
Explorer C:\Windows\Prefetch
Explorer C:\Windows\Temp
Explorer %USERPROFILE%\appdata\local\temp
*********END CODE************
cd C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local rmdir /S /Q Temp
del C:\Windows\Prefetch*.* /Q
del C:\Windows\Temp*.* /Q
del C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent Items*.* /Q pause
If you want to remove all the files in the %TEMP%
folder you could just do this:
del %TEMP%\*.* /f /s /q
That will remove everything, any file with any extension (*.*
) and do the same for all sub-folders (/s
), without prompting you for anything (/q
), it will just do it, including read only files (/f
).
Hope this helps.
