I am using the following to empty the recycle bin for all users:
NOTE: The below is larger batch file that is used to backup files to the server, etc. After the backup is completed, the following is completes the batch file...
ECHO %time% Empty Recycle Bin From All User Accounts >> C:\BackUpHistory\Report.txt
rd /s %systemdrive%\$Recycle.bin /q
ECHO %time% Finished Empty Recycle Bin From All User Accounts >> C:\BackUpHistory\Report.txt
ECHO %time% Removing Files/Folders from UserProfiles Downloads older than 30 days >> C:\BackUpHistory\Report.txt
ForFiles -p "%userprofile%\Downloads" /s /d -30 /c "cmd /c IF @isdir == TRUE rd /S /Q @path"
ECHO %time% Finished deleting Downloads older than 30 days >> C:\BackUpHistory\Report.txt
Both of these works from the batch file, but i cannot get the results into a log file (Report.txt) so I have a record of what was deleted. Is there an easy way to accomplish or generate a list of the files/folders that were deleted and report that back into the Report.txt file?
I tried the ECHO preceding the two relevant lines, but that did not work.
Thank you,
Jat
