Search and delete empty Folders – SID-500.COM


PowerShell

Massive Knowledge? Ache? In search of empty folders and need to delete them? On this submit I present you easy methods to proceed to search out and delete empty folders.

Open PowerShell, ISE or VS Code.

Warning: For those who proceed, all empty folders can be deleted with none warning.

Specify the foundation folder in line 1. In my instance that is C:Knowledge. Then execute the PowerShell code.

All subfolders that are empty can be scanned and deleted with out affirmation.

# Folder empty, then take away them

$path="C:Knowledge"

Get-ChildItem $path -Recurse -Listing | ForEach-Object {
    If((Get-ChildItem $_.FullName) -eq $null) {
        Take away-Merchandise -Path $_.FullName -Verify:$false -Verbose
    }
 }

The verbose parameter ensures that you would be able to see every thing that’s taking place.

Mission achieved.
