How to remove a directory?
Hi All,
If I try to remove a directory but I get following error:
rmdir: 0653-611 Directory name.ft is not empty.
Yes, it isn't empty but should I access the directory and delete the files one after another?
Is there perhaps a way delete a directory even if contains files?
Or if I access the directory is there a way to delete the files all at once?

one of the unjustified ways to do that is to delete it over the network from another pc , it works to me and it hasn't failed a time
ignore last post, thought you were working in DOS. Half asleep :)

Hi, just wondered if you had managed to easily remove your directory tree.

deltree "c:\etc\etc"
replacing "c:\etc\etc" with the desired directory path.
