View 3 RepliesI've found a script on a microsoft site which should clear the temporary internet files folder:
Const TEMPORARY_INTERNET_FILES = &H20&Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace(TEMPORARY_INTERNET_FILES)Set objFolderItem = objFolder.SelfstrPath = objFolderItem.Path & "*.*"Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")objFSO.DeleteFile(strPath)
For some reason this script doesn't work for me. It get's the proper folder becauseI used Wscript.Echo objFolderItem.Path to print the path but the files are not deleted.

View 14 RepliesI have created an updater for our clients application. The way the updater works is to download all the updated files and store them in a temporary folder then check the file hashes. If everything is ok it will copy the files to the applications installation folder. Once this is been completed it will delete all the updated files in the temporary directory.
My problem: I am looking for a directory that will be available for XP, Vista, and Win7. I was thinking about the 'temp' directory.
creating a new folder on a temporary file and moving/copying a file on the newly created temporary file.

I used to run through an ultragrid with a for each loop and that took forever, I stumbled accross this way and it's much faster but I noticed today I still have some straggling .txt files after the form closes at times. Is there a way to actually verify all the files have been deleted before closing the form?
I ran the same for each loop twice to work it out but not sure if that works or worsens it. Also, I'm not entirely sure what that application.doevents does as I initially thought it would finish all above lines before continuing but that does not seem the case. Anyway, these .txt files files are about 500KB and up to 1000 of them at any one time so it's not instant but it's still pretty fast, faster then looping through a grid.

So example.. let say I have a txt file which contains URLs

I'm getting the following error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Is there a way to detect if a file is being deleted,
1) Using the Del key
2) Using the Shift+Del keys
3) Using the above keys from a remote computer through a shared folder
And instead of deleting move it to another folder in the same computer. Basically when a user tries to delete a file or folder it should move it to a specified folder instead of deleting it.
