Batch Scripting (WXP-Pro)

[ChromeX]

hello, what's wrong with this code:
rmdir /s /q C:\Docume~1\%USERNAME%\.limewire

[dineshcooper]

Nothing

Windows doesn't like file/foldernames without any normal characters to the left of the period.

I am a Windows XP user that knows more about Windows PC's than many around me, and as so I am called upon to assist with their problems (for a small fee). and It never hurts to learn more tho'

Try This
rmdir "/s /q C:\Docume~1\" & %USERNAME% & "\.limewire"

just put quotes to treat your expression like a string
Your %USERNAME% is an environment variable. If you put it in with the rest of your expression, VBS will treat it as a literal instead of a variable.

Or if you want get even more precise you could do this:

Dim net

Set net = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
rmdir "/s /q C:\Docume~1\" & net.UserName & "\.limewire"
