Dos Directories and Files

Delete all Files in a Subdirectory

There are two rules we will need to follow before removing a subdirectory.

All files in the subdirectory must be deleted.

NOTE:

Never type DEL *.* when we are in the root directory. It will destroy all DOS files that are necessary to boot and operate the computer.

Directions: 1. Type: cd \info and press Enter. 2. Type: dir and press Enter. 3. Three files should be listed. 4. Type: del *.* and press Enter. 5. DOS will ask you if you are sure? (Y/N) 6. Type: Y and press Enter.

Now that our subdirectory is empty, we can delete the subdirectory.
