Comments
Use/P
If you use/p,del, the file name is displayed and the following message is sent:

FileName, Delete (y/n)?

Press Y to confirm the deletion, N cancel the deletion and display the next file name (if a set of files is specified), or press CTRL + C to stop the DEL command.

disabling command Extensions
If you disable command extensions, the/s command line option displays the name of any file not found, rather than displaying the name of the file being deleted (that is, the behavior is the opposite). For more information about disabling command extensions, see cmd in.

Delete multiple files at once
You can delete all the files in a folder by typing the del command, followed by [Drive:]path. For example, the following command deletes all files in the \work folder:

Del \work

You can also use wildcard characters (* and?) to delete multiple files at once. However, use the wildcard character carefully when using the DEL command to avoid accidentally deleting the file. For example, if you type the following command:

Del *.*

The Del command displays the following tips:

All files in directory would be deleted! Are you sure (y/n)?

Press Y and press ENTER to delete all files in the current folder, or press N and then press ENTER to cancel the deletion.

Before you use the DEL command with wildcards to delete a set of files, you can use the dir command with the same wildcard character to view a list of all the file names that are included in the group.

Warning

After you use Del to delete a file from the disk, you cannot recover the file.
You can use the DEL command (with various parameters) from the Recovery Console.
Example
To remove a drive C:\ All files in the folder named Test, type one of the following commands:

Del C:\Test

Del C:\test\*.*
