Quickly Deleting an entire Windows folder containing tons of files
I often have to delete a Windows 7 folder that will typically contain 30,000 - 35,000 small files.
I've tried deleting to Trash & Not-to-Trash. Takes forever as WIndows goes thru file by file.
Is there a utility (or DOS-prompt) that will just erase a folder & everything in it without Windows going thru it & deleting file-by-file?
I don't need the folder nor the files in trash, I just need to completely wipe it out.
