Windows batch file to delete folders/subfolders using wildcards
- by Marco Demaio
I need to delete all folders in "tomin" folder, which name contains terminates with the ".delme" string.
The deletion need to be done recurively: I mean on all directory and SUB directories.
I though to do this:
FOR /R tomin %%X IN (*.delme) DO (RD /S /Q "%%X")
but it does not work, I think /R ignores wildcards.
Before asking this quation I searched also in SO and found this: but the answers did not help me in solving my issue, following the suggestion given there I tried:
FOR /F tomin "delims=" %%X IN ('dir /b /ad *.delme') DO RD /S /Q "%%X"
But it did not work either.
Any help aprreciated, thanks!
