How do delete temp files from all user profiles?

Question

I have admin rights and I assume I batch script would be able to do this.

Answer 1

If you mean "temp" files, as in *.tmp files, then one line will do the trick,

del "\documents and settings\*.tmp" /s

============
If you mean "temporary internet files", then this one line will do, (all on one line -- Yahoo wraps it.) You may need to change the filepaths a bit depending on your local environment.

From a commandline,
---------------------------------
for /d %i in ("c:\documents and settings\*") do for /d %j in ("%i\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\*") do del "%j\." q


From a batch file, (the "%" variable delims have to be doubled)
---------------------------------
for /d %%i in ("c:\documents and settings\*") do for /d %%j in ("%%i\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\*") do @echo del "%%j\." q
