W: Way to Clear History Using BAT File

N

nr

Anyone know how to clear history by running a BAT file? I found these
commands and tried running them but they didn't work:

DEL /s /q /f "C:\Documents and Settings\user1\Local Settings\History"
DEL /s /q /f "C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Local Settings
\History"
DEL /s /q /f "C:\TEMP\"
DEL /s /q /f "C:\Temporary Internet Files\"

I also had 'rd' instead of 'DEL' and that didn't work. I noticed that
the folders are set to Read Only. I have administrator privilege.

Thanks for any help.
