*.Log & *.Txt

[devil270975]

I was just wondering, is it safe to remove all the log and text files in the %systemroot% folder cus if it is and the reason no-one does it is because takes too long to write all the file names out then here is a solution

CLS
@ECHO OFF
ECHO.
ECHO Removing all text files and logs from the windows directory
ECHO Please wait...
for %%t in (txt) do del "%systemroot%\*.txt"
for %%t in (log) do del "%systemroot%\*.log"
ECHO.

please tell me it is safe, i cant think of a reason why it wouldnt be

Can't see why not, log and txt files are not crucial to an Operating System's functionality. Some will get recreated depending on what you install/change to the OS at a later time.
