ECHO Removing Program Installation Directories
ECHO Please wait...
rmdir %systemdrive%\Install /S/Q

--------------------------

ECHO.
ECHO Removing Temporary Driver Installation Directories
ECHO Please wait...
rmdir %systemdrive%\Drivers /S/Q

Anyone ideas?

TIA

Put ECHO in front of the ---------------------------- and it should work.

The ----------------- doesnt exist in the actual file - put it there as an indicator of where the file was breaking.

Any ideas?

You are deleting the folder with the batch in, before it has finished running.

Switch them around and make sure that the last command is the one deleting the folder in which your running batch resides.
