Thank you for your response. I spent a bunch of time trying to figure this out too. It seems like too much of a hassle just to show a number and show the bat is worthwhile to a user though. If they see a performance increase that's enough for me.

Hi all, I'm glad I found this forum. I was looking for help with this issue but the deployment discussions are great. I made a simple bat file to clear out temp files for users but I'd like to add a bit of information output to it. I made it for both Win7 and XP, if the directory doesn't exist it doesn't do anything so I just added both OS directories. If anyone has any other directories to suggest to clean out please let me know. I've read a bit about prefetch not needing to be cleaned but a peer likes to empty it so I added it. I'd like to be able to count the files (and files in subfolders) in each temp folder and display a total number of files cleaned once the script is completed. (Or display the number of files before deletion if that's tricky) Here is what I put together, it's really basic. Any ideas on how to add a total number of files cleaned output to it? Thanks for any help. del /s /q "c:\windows\prefetch\*.*" del /s /q "c:\windows\temp\*.*" del /s /q "%homepath%\Appdata\Local\Temp\*.*" del /s /q "c:\temp\*.*" del /s /q "%homepath%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\*.*" del /s /q "%homepath%\Local Settings\Temp\*.*
