Delete files with the same extension

[dexter23]

I want to delete some files with the same extension from one folder.

I try this script but don't work

#Include <File.au3>
#Include <Array.au3>

$path = "D:\Notes"
$FileList = _FileListToArray($path, "*.txt")

For $i = 1 To $FileList[0]
    FileDelete($path & "\" & $FileList[$i])
Next

Code's clean and works fine for me - Except for "Read-Only" files. If that ends up being the case with your files, take a look at FileSetAttrib()

Sorry.

I found the problem. The script works, but in that folder I have other folders which include files.

The problem is to recurse in subdirectories.

Hi,

Use this UDF?;

; filedel.au3
#Include <FileListToArray.au3>
#Include <Array.au3>

$path = @ScriptDir

$FileList = _FileListToArray($path, "*.txt",1,1)
_arraydisplay($FileList)
;~ For $i = 1 To $FileList[0];~     FileDelete($path & "\" & $FileList[$i])
;~  ConsoleWrite($path & "\" & $FileList[$i]&@LF)
;~ Next

@randallc you should avoid reposting attachments as often as possible. You should link directly to the main topic containing your scripts so there aren't a bunch of different versions floating around. This also prevents you from filling up your attachment space which I did a long time ago.

randallc's function name isn't _FileListToArray...its _FileListToArray3

randallc example script:

FileListToArray repository:

http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.ph...filelisttoarray

[dexter23]

Again I used this script

#Include <FileListToArray.au3>
#Include <Array.au3>

$path = @ScriptDir

$FileList = _FileListToArray($path, "*.txt",1,1)
_arraydisplay($FileList)
For $i = 1 To $FileList[0]
    FileDelete($path & "\" & $FileList[$i])
    ConsoleWrite($path & "\" & $FileList[$i]&@LF)
Next

and randallc's attachment files, but don't works.

[dexter23]

I have this error

[weaponx]

I don't know what to tell you man. His code is long and confusing and his function names always change. The examples aren't even very clear.

Visit the link I posted above for some alternatives.

Using this

; filedel.au3
#Include <FileListToArray.au3>
#Include <Array.au3>

$path = @ScriptDir

$FileList = _FileListToArray($path, "*.txt",1,1)
_arraydisplay($FileList)
For $i = 1 To $FileList[0]
    FileDelete($path & "\" & $FileList[$i])
    ConsoleWrite($path & "\" & $FileList[$i]&@LF)
Next

the files is founded and listed, but aren't deleted.

Hi,

Sorry; you don't need the path.

$FileList = _FileListToArray($path, "*.txt",1,1)
FileDelete($FileList[$i])oÝ÷ ÚÚºÚ"µÍÌÍÑ[SÝHÑ[SÝÐ^J   ÌÍÜ] ][ÝÊ  ][ÝËKK

Just as well, though; you don't want to delete your scriptdirectory files?>...

Best, Randall
