Cleanup problem

[DarshfX]

Hi everyone,

I have problem with my cleanup.

I've found some very iointeresting topic on it but, i'm a french user and encounter some trouble

When i do

RD /S /Q "%UserProfile%\Menu Démarrer\Programmes\Matroska Pack"

wich for english correspond to

RD /S /Q "%UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Matroska Pack"

he automaticaly change this to

RD /S /Q "%UserProfile%\Menu Dúmarrer\Programmes\Matroska Pack"

I've tested with "keyb fr" on the first line, but no hope.

Please helllppp (with lillo voice =))

Thanks, D@rshfX

Try "%userprofile%\Menudm~1\", it works fine here.

Does it exist under Windows XP anyway to find the 8.3 name of a folder or a file ?

Because in command line, he's not tell us the name like he do in older version of command line like in win2k or WinMe, and i don't want to bother you with all my folder with é in it

I never found a way to do so. I just try in random knowing that the "~1" usually comes after 6 letters and that the accents get skipped, exactly like Menudm~1 for example.

To find out the 8.3 name of a folder or a file you can use dir /x from the command prompt. You must to be on a higher-level folder to use dir /x.

e.g. if you want to find out the 8.3 name for program files you must be on C:
