Delete Folder?

[wlmoate]

Hello,

I have used search and can not find an answer to my question, can someone help me? I have a sub folder within a folder and want to delete it along with any contents. I can delete files within a folder but not the folder itself

Here is my code

#Installs/Deletes files in specified directory------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Section -Main SEC0003
SetOutPath "$DOCUMENTS\Firmware\Phase 1"
Delete *.*
#SetOverwrite on
SectionEnd

#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#Installs/Deletes files in specified directory------------------------------------------------------

Section -Main SEC0004
SetOutPath "$DOCUMENTS\Connect \Phase 2"
Delete 2.23
SetOverwrite on

SectionEnd

#-------------- 2.23 is one of the folders I want to delete.

check out the RMDir command.

Thanks for the quick reply.

So can you clarify if the following will work? and delete the folder 1.57 and its contents


Section -Main SEC0003
SetOutPath "$DOCUMENTS\Firmware\Phase 1\1.57"
RMDir /r $INSTDIR
#SetOverwrite on
SectionEnd

Thanks again

Don't use SetOutPath on it. You will lock the folder if you do that. Also never use RMDir /r on $INSTDIR in case the user has chosen C:\Windows for it (for example).

RMDir /r "$DOCUMENTS\Firmware\Phase 1\1.57"
