Everything can be scripted to achieve whatever you want. This is the power of
scripting. From the vbscript you can use icacls.exe to change folder
permissions.
Cheers,
Jeremy.

Hi
I cannot delete the top level as the top folder has specific rights which are
not inherited.. Would be good if I can delete everything except the top
folder. Otherwise I would need to script the ACL modifications also. Users
group needs modify access to the top folder.. Can this be scripted easily?
Thanks
Ang

Hi,
You might want to look at this:
http://www.computing.net/answers/programming/vbscript-to-delete-all-subfolders/14650.html
Easiest way would be to create a script to remove the top level folder and
everything inside, and then recreate the top level folder.
i.e.
@echo off
rmdir /s /q somedir
mkdir somedir

Hi
Im trying to create a script that runs on server startup that deletes all
files/folders in a specific folder but without deleting the top level folder
C:\TEST
FOLDER1
FOLDER2
etc
I tried using rmdir c:\Test\ /s /q but this deletes the test folder. I need to
delete all subfolders except c:\test. Any ideas on how I can do this?? Citrix
