[Solved] Automatic Delete Request

[wrc559]

Hey, Im trying to automate my tech business as much as possible and i want to try and automatically delete files once im done..

So far i have used these codes.

<Delete>
C:%My Documents%Downloads\TechTools_Encrypted
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\Downloads\TechTools_Encrypted.zip
C:\Program Files\SUPERAntiSpyware
C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes Anti-Malware

However, whilst the program directories delete, i run into an issue with the first 2 auto delete requests, mainly... the User ID changing between systems automatically. The first attempt was when i was trying to change it around a bit , however still no luck with the coding.

<Run>
C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes Anti-Malware\unins000.exe
--------------------------------------------
<Run>
C:\Program Files\SUPERAntiSpyware\Uninstall.exe

I also initiated uninstalls automatically.

If you need some more information on what im trying to do, please let me know, otherwise assistance required!

Hello wrc559.

You need to have a look at the UVK's supported environment variables.

<Delete> moves the files to the recycle bin. In your case, I guess you should use <SDelete> instead.

You need to uninstall the programs and wait until they are fully uninstalled before removing their folders, so you should use <RunWait> instead of <Run>.

Something like this should work:

Code: Select all

;First, uninstall the programs
<RunWait>

%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Malwarebytes Anti-Malware\unins000.exe -silent
%ProgramFiles%\SUPERAntiSpyware\Uninstall.exe -silent


<SDelete>

;On XP, the path of the Downloads folder is different
%MyDocs%\Downloads\TechTools_Encrypted
%MyDocs%\Downloads\TechTools_Encrypted.zip

;Vista+
%UserProfile%\Downloads\TechTools_Encrypted
%UserProfile%\Downloads\TechTools_Encrypted.zip

%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
%ProgramFiles%\SUPERAntiSpyware
