Hello

Im looking for a simple program to delete thosounds of folders. Im talking over 100,000 folders and subfolders. I work at a school, and this kid has created this many folders and subfolders in his drive. Anyone know a any DOS based program that has no GUI interface that will delete all these folders very fast? Windows XP is taking all day and still has about 50k folders to go

thanks...

All programs would use Windows built-in file functions to do stuff so no other program realistically would be faster than XP itself. If the kid doesn't need his drive or its contents any longer for any reason, it'll be quicker to wipe it.
