: If I type "del *.*" DOS asks me
: Do you want to delete all files (y/n) ?

: Is there a way to pass a "y" parameter in my command line to
: "del *.*" so I do not get this message.

: For example something like this "del *.* /y " ,
: but this doesn't work I tried it already.

: Thanks for any suggestions.

Oh man.. a DOS question. This takes me back. Waaay back.
To delete all files "forceably", pass it a /Q parameter (Quiet mode).
something like this will work:

del *.*/Q

hope that helps,

Jason
