Hello guys, hope everything is fine..


i need to delete all the files inside a folder... but if i use del /foldername.. its asks me for everyfile if i want to delete it..


is it there any command to delete all the files inside a folder without confirmation?


Thanks

I thought in this case it also gives you the option "yes to all".

edit: nmv...just noticed it's in *nix section.

i am using winSCP 4 and it just tells yes or no.

rm *

Thank you so much

Actually what you were looking for is rm -rf directoryname

Be very careful using wildcards with rm. And don't ever use a wildcard with recursive (-r).

edit: note that that will actually unlink the directory itself too, which you didn't actually specify, but I assume is what you wanted anyway, and even if it wasn't you didn't lose anything you can just make it again.
