RE: How to remove all *.tmp files

Not sure if it would cleanup outlook attachments or word or excel temporary
files. It sure leaves the cookies which are in use. This works same on
servers as well. If an application installation fails, it is th etask of the
windows installer to cleanup the resedue.

Thanks for the quick response. Does this also clean up orphaned Outlook
attachments, Word and Excel temporary files? Does it leave the cookies alone
(I think it does) from Internet browsing? Have you found this useful for
Windows servers also? If you have a program/application installation that
aborts/fails, does it clean up any residual there too?
THanks!

Right click C drive and click properties, click "disk cleanup", this should
give you the options to clean more than just tmp files for making more room.

How can I run a command that will remove all *.tmp files so I can clean out
my temporary files in a variety of places on my entire C drive? Are there
other files (beside the normal IE files) that I should clean up? How would I
do this? I thought at one time there was a command structure for the Delete
command but I didn't want to "run wild" as it may hurt more than it will help.
I think most would reside under the C:\Documents and Settings\ folder.
Can I use this same command on a Windows 2003 SBS server?
TIA!
