chyronn Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Re: cleanup.cmd, i want to delete some user specific shortcuts on the desktop, namely DVD Shrink and Spybot1.3 as well some more shortcuts in programs files. now, i know that not all shortcuts belong to one specific user. i have looked at the profiles and i see three: All Users, Default User and "my name" (the account that's under my name). what i would like to know is, which one is the Administrator account, and what would i have to enter in my cleanup.cmd to delete user specific shortcuts. currently i have :RD /S /Q "%Userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\DVD Shrink 3.1.lnk"RD /S /Q "%Userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Spybot - Search & Destroy.lnk"RD /S /Q "%Userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Outlook Express.lnk"which are the ones that do not function as intended.

SiMoNsAyS Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 RD is used to Remove Dirs, to delete shortcuts you'll need to use the command DEL like:DEL /F /Q "%Userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\DVD Shrink 3.1.lnk"DEL /F /Q "%Userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Spybot - Search & Destroy.lnk"DEL /F /Q "%Userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Outlook Express.lnk"normally shortcuts are created on your user profile, if that is not the case you'll need to use the variable %ALLUSERSPROFILE% also next time try to use tags to left it clear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
