Question

I read and tried some code from

1. What's the fastest way to delete a large folder in Windows? (rmdir /s /q folder)

2. Delete Files with Windows Command Prompt

I want to create a batch which delete a folder which name starts with Test_. I have a folder D:\Test_123_19_10_2012.

How to write in batch or command prompt ? Need regular expression ?

Thank you for patience.

Answer 1

Here you go

for /d %%a in (D:\Test_*) do rd %%a /q

The for loop is necessary as it seems rd doesn’t support wildcards.
