To delete the directory tree starting at c:\subdir\more\offending_dir:
The total step-by-step-process is as simple as this:
cd c:\subdir\more to cd into its parent directory.
mkdir empty to create an empty directory.
robocopy empty offending_dir /mir to mirror the empty directory into the offending one.
After some waiting you’re done! Finish it up with:
rmdir offending_dir to get rid of the now empty offending directory and
rmdir empty to get rid of your intermediate empty directory.
Windows
Step 1 – Search for Notepad, then right-click on Notepad in the search results list, and choose Run as administrator. If you’re using Windows 10, a shortcut to Notepad is in the Start Menu.
Step 2 – Once NotePad is open, Go to File -> Open… and copy/paste the following file path:
c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
Click open to start editing the hosts file.
Step 3 – Make your desired additions or alterations. Most likely you’ll be pasting something at the bottom of the document.
Tip: Adding a hashtag to the start of a line will disable it. For example, the line
# 128.91.58.195 origin.factcheck.org
won’t have any effect, but it will retain the host assignment for later use.
Step 4 – Go to File -> Save to commit the change that we just made.
