I have the following situation. I got a Temp folder which gets filled with all kinds of files and directories. I want/need to clean it regularly, but I can't figure out a command or set of MS-DOS command to do so.
Command called erase deletes all the files, so no problem there, but the directories is the thing I'm struggling with. I know some of you might suggest deleting the Temp directory and then creating it, which is NOT an option for me unfortunately, since I MUST keep it intact, since doing messes up things on my system.
Any ideas, good people? 🙂

In a MS-DOS system use
deltree
.DELTREE [/Y] directory\*.*
From a cmd windows in the latest versions you can use
rd.exe
orrmdir.exe
rd directory/* /s
or
rmdir directory/* /s
