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.

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

del won t trigger any dialogs or message boxes  You have a few problems  though    start will just open Explorer which would be useless  You need cd to change the working directory of your batch file  the  D is there so it also works when run from a different drive    cd  D  temp   You may want to delete directories as well   for  d   D in     do rd  s  q    D   You need to skip the question for del and remove read-only files too   del  f  q      so you arrive at    echo off cd  D  temp  for  d   D in     do rd  s  q    D  del  f  q
