can you explain with an example
Microsoft DOS rd / rmdir command - http://www.computerhope.co
Microsoft DOS del command - http://www.computerhope.co
Sure - so each user will create a folder typically from outlook automatically throught the year and windows creates it in the temp directory as above.. naming it seems random but always begins with OLK.
SO now we have a couple of files called OLKxxx in the directory, eg "C\Temporary Internet Files\OLK43D"
each time the user opens an excel attachement they receive via email, it create a .xls in one on these OLKxxx folders. I need to create a batch file for the users across 200 odd, to auto delete these files in these OLKxxx folders, reason being becasue when it reached .xls #99 or the same named file in the OLKxxx folder, the next time the user tried to open the outlook attachment of the same name, the system32 folder would open instead...
Hope this make sense.
