Windows XP command line delete files

Asked by bryanatm in Windows XP Operating System, Microsoft Windows Operating Systems, Windows Vista

What is Windows XP equivalent to the linux command "rm -rf <folder here>"?  I want to delete a folder and its contents.  I have tried using "deltree" command but Windows XP says "Command not found".
