Create Autoit delete Temp file script

[nanodroid]

Hi, I have been working with autoit for about a week now and I have been going through some of the examples that it provides with the download just to get familar with the program. I would like to try my hand at creating a script that will allow me to delete %temp% files and prefetch files, and also any KB* bug fixes in the windows folder....I'm a novice at this and would like to become and expert at this great program , so any assistance would be greatly appreciated....Thanks...Also if you guys have any great books on scripting for beginngers that you can point me to that would be great as well.

I want to learn as much as possible....with Autoit.

This will do it.

Local $aFldrs[4] = [EnvGet("temp"), "C:\temp", @WindowsDir & "\temp", @WindowsDir & "\prefetch"]
For $i = 0 To UBound($aFldrs) - 1
    If MsgBox(1, "Folder", $aFldrs[$i]) = 2 Then ContinueLoop
    If FileExists($aFldrs[$i]) Then
        DirRemove($aFldrs[$i], 1)
        DirCreate($aFldrs[$i])
    EndIf
Next

Caveate: If you hit a file in the Temp folder that is in use then no more files in that folder will be processed. The way you would normally handle it is by going file by file and deleting them with error checking to continue the loop when the file can not be deleted.

By the way. I only used the message box to allow me to cancel clearing my prefetch while testing since I don't want that folder touched.
