Hi every one,

I am new here and I have a problem. I want to write batch file that search txt files. If a file has a fixed string, such as "I love", the file would be erased.

How can I do it?

Thanks in advance for any help!

set "searchdir=c:\dir to search"
set "stringtofind=whatever you want"

cd /d "%searchdir%"
for %%a in (*.txt) do find /i "%stringtofind%" && echo del "%%~a"


TEST THOROUGHLY FIRST! Remove the "echo" to actually del files.
