RD, RMDIR

RD and RMDIR are the same command.

Removes directories. Per default, only empty directories can be removed.

To create directories, see MD.

Examples:

• rd Dir1
• rd Dir1 Dir2
• rd "My Dir With Spaces"
• rd /s Dir1

  Removes the directory Dir1 including all the files and sub-directories in it, asking for confirmation once before proceeding with the removal. To delete files recursively in nested directories with a confirmation per file, use DEL with /s switch.

• rd /q /s Dir1

  Like above, but without asking for confirmation.
