Always make a backup before you run the script

[KegRaider]

OK, good thing i do this anyway, i usually have a directory called bacups with the scripts that i am working on. I created the following "Monster" to allow me to choose between Windows XP and Windows 2K for deleting some java files, temp files, etc.....

It kind of wiped out the script i was working on and didn't even bother to delete the file i wanted? Can someone please enlighten me as to where i stuffed up? I need about 3 things wiped per OS, and under the standard user's login. I have trolled through the forums and added this out of many great scripts.

Can i safely run _RunDOS under my other rundos, or do i have to create another if guictrlread section?

Thanks,

Troy.

Hey,

Just trolled through the help file some more.....heaven forbit "RTFM"...lol

FileDelete does everything that i wanted anyway. It's just hard to break old habbits, old MS-DOS batch writer from way back!

If GUICtrlRead($osxp) = 1 Then FileDelete("c:\Program Files\Documen\jre\142_04\com\document\components\data\datafile")
FileDelete("c:\windows\Downloaded Program Files\*.*")

works a treat.

Oh well, thanks for reading at least

Troy.
