Script to search for and delete all files with extension xxx

[Mike62]

I need a script to delete files with a extension of tmp, temp, and dmp.

This is probably really simple, I'm new to scripting.

also i need it to search just the local drives, no mapped drives.

Thanks in advance!!

Create a file call DEL-xyz.cmd with notepad and enter the following:

@echo off
for /f "tokens=*" %%j in ('dir /B /s *.tmp') do del /Q "%%j"
for /f "tokens=*" %%j in ('dir /B /s *.temp') do del /Q "%%j"
for /f "tokens=*" %%j in ('dir /B /s *.dmp') do del /Q "%%j"

And run it from the directory you wnat to clean up. it can be from the root
of a drive.

Have fun!

I know this works in XP so it may be worth looking at.

Go to the root of the drive

C:

then type

del /s *.tmp *.temp *.dmp

For more info type del /?

del /s *.tmp *.temp *.dmp

problem is, that will also deleted *.tmpl, *.tmplx, *.template etc etc.
