how do you remove a non-empty directory from the command prompt? ive tried
rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty
rm -d
both of which fail to work, rm-d giving an error of '...is a directory' and rmdir not giving any error msg (-v tells me it thinks it is removing the directory, but it is still there when i check) _________________ 95% of all computer errors occur between chair and keyboard (TM)
