Deletes one or more files.

DEL [/P] [/F] [/s] [/Q] [/A[[:]attributes]] names

ERASE [/P] [/F] [/s] [/Q] [/A[[:]attributes]] names

names Specifies a list of one or more files or directories.

Wildcards may be used to delete multiple files. If a

directory is specified, all files within the directory

will be deleted.

/P Prompts for confirmation before deleting each file.

/F Force deleting of read-only files.

/S Delete specified files from all subdirectories.

/Q Quiet mode, do not ask if ok to delete on global wildcard

/A Selects files to delete based on attributes

attributes R Read-only files S System files

H Hidden files A Files ready for archiving

- Prefix meaning not

If Command Extensions are enabled DEL and ERASE change as follows:

The display semantics of the /S switch are reversed in that it shows

you only the files that are deleted, not the ones it could not find.

i also highly recommend checking out http://www.ss64.com/nt/index.html

there is a lot of detailed information about window's command line applications and their syntax and sample scripts

and for quick help with any command it's always good to run the command with /? or -h or /help or --help as they usually list the syntax and usage it's that does not work google it
