The command (below), at the end of my batch.cmd file didnt work. The folder and its content remain intact after installation during first boot-up!

ECHO Removing Temporary files

rd /s /q "%systemdrive%\install"

Any suggestions?

there may be a program, etc. still running when the command to remove the directory is started.

i dont get anything @ anytime! the programs install fine, just this command seem not to be done

have you tried to run it at system startup using runonceex?

Nope. i dont know how to do that

check out runonceex and modify it so it executes that command at first boot.

Try removing the ECHO OFF, etc and put a PAUSE at the end of your batch file to help debugging the problem.

Where ECHO OFF?

he is assuming that you have an

@echo off

statement at the beginning of your batch script, if you don't, you can safely ignore his suggestion.

(@echo hides the commands being executed from the window)

does it not work at all? OR is it removing files and then you have your PC reboot, so it doesn't have enough time to finish?

SUGGESTION - install your apps from the CD. Its faster in that you don't spend time copy the files to the HD and then time to delete them.

It is pretty easy to do too.

I used RunOnceEx as AthlonXP2100 advised me..
