Remove-File
Synopsis
Delete Files
Syntax
Remove-File [-File] <String> [[-Context] <String>] [-ContinueOnError] [-IncludeInUse] [-Recurse] [-Wow64] [<CommonParameters>]
Description
Use this command to delete the files specified in the Path text box; you can use wildcards in the same way as with DOS commands.
Parameters
-Context <String> |
||||||
User: Execution under user account; logging in HKEY_CURRENT_USER, i.e. for the user. |
||||||
|
-ContinueOnError <SwitchParameter> |
||||||
Continues script execution in spite of errors in the respective command |
||||||
|
-File <String> |
||||||
Files to delete. |
||||||
|
-IncludeInUse <SwitchParameter> |
||||||
Also deletes files that are used in the Windows unattended mode. In this mode, the Installer automatically checks whether the files to be deleted are currently in use (and therefore cannot be deleted while Windows is running). The respective files are listed; Windows is automatically restarted and the files will be deleted. |
||||||
|
-Recurse <SwitchParameter> |
||||||
Deletes all subdirectories of the specified directory. |
||||||
|
-Wow64 <SwitchParameter> |
||||||
By default, the PackageDeployment module assumes to run in a 64-bit PowerShell process on 64-bit systems, and therefore defaults to the 64-bit application location (if different from the 32-bit application location) for file and registry accesses. If you want to access the 32-bit counterparts (in the file system %WinDir%\SysWOW64 instead of %WinDir%\System32, in the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node instead of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE), use the -Wow64 switch. |
