So at work we have a folder we have to constant delete files out of after they have been transfered. Is there a batch file or shortcut we could place on the desktop so we would not have to select all the files each time. Thanks for the help

what's so difficult about just deleting the folder and re-creating it?

Do you use a script to transfer data that you just add a rm command to?

uhh, just make a batch file that deletes the files in that folder?

ctrl + a,
shift + delete

yea Im using control+a and del now. I was just trying to simply make this a one click thing. So I was looking into making a batch file but its been a while and I really dont remember how to write one.

"rm -rf /"

Thanks for trying to help, I just looked it up online. Is there a more efficient/correct method than just having a batch file go change into the directory and del *

QUESTION: is there an easier way of making a peanut butter jelly sandwich without buying all the ingredients and putting them into my sandwich?

ANSWER: yes, get your mom to make it for you.
