Hi, I recently arrived at Windows XP after many years of Win98. In
Win98 I was able to insert 4 statements into Autoexec.bat file to erase
Cookies, Temp, History, and Temp. Internet Files from my drive at
bootup. XP has no such .bat file. I read here that it is possible to
accomplish the same in XP with something called a "batch file", or by
modifying registry, etc. As I am totally new to this, I would greatly
appreciate a detailed description of how to set it up, the proper
commands to enter, the way to create or modify the required executable
files, etc.
An example of the commands in Win98 Autoexec file:
c:\windows\command\deltree /y c:\windows\cookies
That would eliminate the "cookies" file. This worked perfectly every
time, and Windows just re-created the deleted files.
All help greatly appreciated.
