Re: Delete junks program... :)

You code can delete files that are not intended, if the pushd fails or if there are spaces in the path - which will cause the pushd to fail.
The files in whichever folder is the current directory would be deleted.

Specifying the path is always safest - or use errorlevel tests with pushd

@echo off
pushd "c:\my folder" 2>nul && (del *.txt & pause & goto :eof)

The *.*? will suppress a prompt asking if you are sure that you wish to delete the files.
This can be done other ways in modern windows but the *.*? method works for older Windows too.

This is untested:

@echo off
echo.
echo. Deleting files in Local temp and local CrashDumps !
echo.
echo. Hit any key to continue deletion.....
pause>nul

del /Q "%LOCALAPPDATA%\Temp\*.*?"  "%LOCALAPPDATA%\CrashDumps\*.*?" "%programfiles(x86)%\Google\CrashReports\*.dmp"
pause
