I have made some tests with Del. It works fine for me, though it leaves the Folders and only deletes the Files. Just as I expect!

I would be nice if Rd would have the same recursive options. Or a force switch. (/s or /f)

If i don't want to delete the Folder, i will not use RD, so if I do want delete the Folder, I don't care if it's empty or not. Or is that thought to simple?!

Best regards,

Ryan
