[SOLVED] How do you remove BOOTSECT.BAK from %SYSTEMDRIVE% using com

zedox
in Unattended Windows Vista/Server 2008

Featured Replies

After installing Vista there is always this annoying file left over at the root of the system drive....

BOOTSECT.BAK

Using Right Click > Delete, works. But I want to remove it silently on first boot.

DEL /Q %SYSTEMDRIVE%\BOOTSECT.BAK

comes back saying it can't find that file!

Even DIR on the %SYSTEMDRIVE% doesn't show its presence!

If anyone has come up with a way of removing this file please share your knowledge! :hello:

Edited by zedox


hadn't noticed that and don't have Vista on right now

perhaps an attrib -R -A -S -H %systemdrive%\BOOTSECT.BAK

first then the Del?

:D Nice one! That worked!

Do I feel silly... should've tried that!

i'm not sure but i think i deleted that file long ago in another installation of vista and began to have some problems. not sure but as i don't know what is that file for i would leave it alone.
