[cramaboule]

Here is a script to delete *.tmp files and and temporary folder.

An easy one !

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

$Debug=0

Func EmptyFolder($FolderToDelete)
    $AllFiles=_FileListToArray($FolderToDelete,"*",0)
    If $Debug Then MsgBox(0,"",$FolderToDelete)
    If IsArray($AllFiles) Then
        If $Debug Then 
            _ArrayDisplay( $AllFiles,$FolderToDelete)
        EndIf
        For $i = 1 To $AllFiles[0]
            FileDelete($FolderToDelete & "\" & $AllFiles[$i])
            DirRemove($FolderToDelete & "\" & $AllFiles[$i], 1)    
        Next
    EndIf
EndFunc

EmptyFolder (@HomeDrive & @HomePath & "\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5")
EmptyFolder (@HomeDrive & @HomePath & "\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files")
EmptyFolder (@HomeDrive & @HomePath & "\Cookies")
EmptyFolder (@HomeDrive & @HomePath & "\Local Settings\History")
EmptyFolder (@HomeDrive & "\Temp\Temporary Internet Files")

EmptyFolder (@HomeDrive & @HomePath & "\Local Settings\Temp")

ShellExecuteWait("RunDll32.exe"," InetCpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 255")

Added the ShellExecuteWait then NOW the Temporary Internet Files are really deleted !

would it not be better to have temp files deleted from the windows dir only if they are older than a day. i.e. not that days files?

Hi,

Great script - I modified it to delete files older than 1 hour - do you foresee any problem with doing this?

Another question; this script does not delete read only files - is this by design?

Cheers,

Murray
