Code: [Select]

rd /s [Name Of Folder]

That is the correct format to use. Specifically what did you use for name of folder?

but i want to delete all folders at once

What result did you get?

Note: Expect incorrect results if you're logged-in to any directory within the named folder tree structure.

In order to give you understand i'll give you an other example.If i want to delete all the files a folder contains i write del /q *.*  .Now with rd what should i write instead of *.*?

I don't want to delete the first folder,i want to enter to first folder and then delete everything that is in it

That was an important piece of information.

Code: [Select]

@echo off
for /f "tokens=* delims=*" %%i in ('dir /s /b /a-d folder1') do (
del /f %%i
)
for /f "tokens=* delims=*" %%i in ('dir /s /b /ad folder1') do (
rd /s /q %%i
)
   
Note: You should use a fully qualified path to folder1. The code is written as a batch file to be run from the command prompt.
