hi, for the last half hour or so i have been trying to get this line of code to work
system("del %APPDATA%\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Start Menu\\*.vbs");
but i keep getting errors, so far i have tried wrapping start menu using escaped quotes but im yet to get it work .
any help would be appreciated
Jump to PostI think you need quotes around the whole thing:
system("del \"%APPDATA%\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Start Menu\\*.vbs\"");That's the way to deal with that (when there are spaces anywhere in the file-path).

Plus doesn't system always require a string as its argument?
