i tried to create a directory in command line which i did succesfuly with sub directories as in the jedi\yoda example, only when i got back to my c:\> prompt and tried "deltree c:\jedi i got deltree is not recognised, etc i can use rd to delete the subdirectiry then again to delete the directory but for some reason deltree just results in a message.

Come on give us a clue fastrhino.

What OS are you using?

If it's W2K then it's not there anymore Not sure about XP but I doubt it.

You can do the same thing with RD, just add the switch /S and it will remove the directories and files. You can add /Q and it won't prompt you to say okay.

Use with caution

Example...

RD C:\pr0n /S /Q

 

sorry, i asumed you would know, what a dummy i am, i am having what girls call a blonde moment,,,ha ha

i am using xp pro, tried rd but it would not allow it as the directiry had files in it. will try your suggested switch.

thanks blue
