Need a script to delete temporary ASP.NET files

[Mak66]

Hi,

I have a weekly (or so) task that I perform, which essentially involved
going through the temporary ASP.NET file structure, and delete temporary
files and folders that are not actively being used. All I really need is a
script that deletes certain files which are not currently being locked....

I have seen and used scripts to delete singular, and multiple files, but in
my searching I have not been able to find information on checking whether a
file is in use....

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Mark

You can use a humble batch file like the one below. It will
delete all the files it can.

@echo off
del /q "d:\My Files\*.*"
