Del
(Command)
Available from version 3.63 through the latest release.
Syntax
Del "<filename>" [/h] [/s][/c][/f] Parameters
filename = the filename (may include path if not current directory).
/h = Delete hidden files
/s = Delete system files
/c = Continue on error
/f = delete read only files Description
Deletes one or more files Example
Del "c:\data\backups"
Del "c:\data\backups\"
Del "c:\data\backups\*.*"
In the above example, the first statement will attempt to delete a file named "backups" in the "data" directory. The second and third statements will both delete the contents of a directory named "c:\data\backups". The directory itself will not be deleted by the DEL command. Remarks
Del does not delete directories. Del is for deleting files only; use RD to remove directories.
/c and /f arguments were added with the release of v4.22. Also see:
