Say for example I have a folder abc containing sub folders 1, 2, 3, 4. Now I want to delete all the folders except folder 2 and its content. I have tried
PUSHD (c:\abc\2)
rd /s /q "C:\abc" 2>nul
But it deletes the files inside the 2 folder also. I don't want any of the files of folder 2 deleted?
The following code should work:
for /D %%D in ("C:\abc\*.*") do (
if /I not "%%~nxD"=="2" (
2> nul rd /S /Q "%%~fD"
)
)
The for /D loop walks through the directories 1, 2, 3, 4.
The if statement checks the name of the currently iterated directory not to be 2.
