fr33k Posted January 29, 2002 Share Posted January 29, 2002 I was just at nonags and found this little cmd tool it removes empty folders from your hard drive. except it wouldn't touch the xerox folder, so it looks like some folders you can't delete. the cmd is rmempty, so I put rmempty c:/ and it says it deleted 159 empty directories form my hard drive, so thats cool http://yourpage.blazenet.net/ditto/Files/rmemp12.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
