Windows powershell to do a big delete

 

In M&L Procedures I had a step in which you could erase a lot of files faster by using the powershell, but it proved to be unnecessary. 

It's from the section called this:

OPTIONAL Once a month update PLEX2-HP

So I moved that step here in case I need it for something else

Note: it’s faster to use the powershell to do the ERASE. To do this, first temporarily move the Quicken folder to Downloads, then go into Powershell, go into the Documents folder in Powershell.  Then type this exactly:

Remove-Item -Path .\* -Recurse -Force


Now you can return the Quicken folder to the Documents folder
