Deleting directories recursively

[Pradeep]

Ok, so I have a bunch of directories, all at the same level, and they all have a directory called Output in them.

I need to delete the Output folders (or at least delete their contents).

I tried del /s Output but it didn't do jackshit from the root dir.

I'm sure I'm missing something here.

Thanks, Pradeep

Del /S only deletes files, not directories.

for /D %a in (*) do @rd /Q /S %a\output 2>nul

/D specifies directories;
/S deletes any files in an 'output' directory;
/Q suppresses user confirmation;
@suppresses echo;
2>nul suppresses stderr.
