Pop quiz for geeks.
Nov. 24th, 2005 05:06 pmOn a Windows XP machine, I have a folder with many hundreds of subfolders.
I want to delete all files of a given extension (.doc in this case) from the root folder and from all subfolders, without affecting any of the other files.
I could do this in one line in a *NIX environment, and popping open CygWin would certainly fix the problem that way, but I want to know: does anyone know of a solution in Windows that does NOT involve manually selecting every file or opening a different OS emulator?
