DOCUMENT:Q102881 04-NOV-1993 [W_NT]
TITLE :DEL Command Gives Nonintuitive Message
PRODUCT :Windows NT
PROD/VER:3.10
OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
KEYWORDS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
- Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
--------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
When you are using the DEL command at the command prompt to delete all
the files in a directory, the following message appears:
*, Are you sure (Y/N)?
This anomaly occurs when you issue the command "DEL *.*" or "DEL ."
(without the quotation marks).
The message should actually read:
All files in this directory will be deleted. Are you sure (Y/N)?
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version
3.1. We are researching this problem and will post new information
here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
Additional reference words: 3.10
