Cleaning Desktop, my documents and My pictures


Recommended Posts

Hello guys,

Have been for ever since i programmed something in AutoIT.

For my work i have to make the following:

A script that works under the guest account. The guest can do almost anything with the computer like messing with my documents, making shortcuts on the desktop and adding pictures to my pictures. They can also fill the recycle bin.

So far, i got this script, but it actually deletes the map 'Desktop'

What i'm trying to do is make a script that just empties that map instead of deleting it.

Is there also a way in autoit that users cannot change the startpage of firefox and iexplore

Is there also a way that users cannot change the wallpaper?

I dont expect you guys to give me the whole code, but can you get me started?

#Include <File.au3>
$map = 'C:\Documents and Settings\Klant2\Bureaublad\'

_DirRemoveContents($map)

_Prullenbak 


Func _DirRemoveContents($folder) 
    Local $list_of_contents, $status
    $list_of_contents = _FileListToArray($folder)
    If IsArray($list_of_contents) Then
        If StringRight($folder, 1) <> "\"  Then $folder = $folder & "\" 
        If @error = 1 Then Return 1 
        For $a = 1 To $list_of_contents[0]
            FileSetAttrib($folder & "\" & $list_of_contents[$a], "-RASH")
            If StringInStr(FileGetAttrib($folder & $list_of_contents[$a]), "D") Then
                $status = DirRemove($folder & $list_of_contents[$a], 1)
            Else
                $status = FileDelete($folder & $list_of_contents[$a])
            EndIf
        Next
    Else
        Return 2
    EndIf
EndFunc   

Func _Prullenbak()
    FileRecycleEmpty()
        If @error = 1 Then Return 1
Endfunc

Thanks!

This should find all files in the desktopdir and announce them in a MsgBox.. see FileFindNextFile in your HelpDir

; Shows the filenames of all files in the current directory
$search = FileFindFirstFile(@DesktopDir & "\*.*")

; Check if the search was successful
If $search = -1 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Error", "No files/directories matched the search pattern")
    Exit
EndIf

While 1
    $file = FileFindNextFile($search) 
    If @error Then ExitLoop
    
    MsgBox(4096, "File:", $file) ; Maybe a FileDelete at this point
WEnd

; Close the search handle
FileClose($search)
