    Err… why not do both? 🙂

    rd /q /s c:\temp
    del /q c:\temp
    

    One of them will succeed if C:\temp is either a file or a folder and the other one will fail. If both fails, it means that it couldn’t be deleted or not found. You can even make it a batch file if you don’t want to type both commands in all the time.
