Why does this command erase if there are subdirectories of destination folder ? Nevertheless, I only want the files in the destination folder to be deleted.

Similar problem also exist to Filecopy
This line of Multi7 project is supposed to copy all .exe files from boot.wim windows to target windows folder

FileCopy,"%bw%\*.exe","%tw%\"but it also creates sub folders and files in winsxs directory.

The deault behaviour of the file commands was changed. upon request from Vista or Win7 projects, if i remember right.
I already complained about this back then, but because the behaviour was already heavy in use, Peter did not wanted to change it, so that non recursive would have been default again.

I added NOREC to FileDelete.
Syntax now:
is should be correct, while syntax.html is not always actually updated.
Peter
Syntax now:
FileCopy,FromFile,ToDir[,PRESERVE][,NOWARN][,NOREC][,SHOW] FileDelete,FileToDelete[,NOWARN][,NOREC] DirCopy,FromDir,ToDir[,SHOW] DirDelete,DirToDelete[,FAST]Please take care that magic wand

All the time I was in the development team, and did a lot of bug fixes and enhancements.
I only decided to stop wasting my time when I try to discuss ideas and then have to read about my lying and aftergaming etc.
As I already told you in a different topic:
Ignoring posts which are not worth to read, gives a lot of time to do senceful things!
