Simple Question about % char

**cachirro** · August 23, 2004

I need to delete a file of alcohol 120% via cmd, but the % in the 120% isn't reconized, here is the line:

DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Desktop\Alcohol 120%.lnk

How can i make it recognize the char?

I'm also looking for the thread that released: WPI_071404_2_0b.rar

i searched more than 10 times and can't find it, i want to find it to see if there's a new version.

You can use this:

DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Desktop\Alcohol*.lnk"

Just as long as nothing else on your desktop has a filename that starts with Alcohol."

Alcohol 120*.link would work as well.

Try adding another "%"

DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Desktop\Alcohol 120%%.lnk"
