Try this:


:: del_tmps.bat
@ECHO off
ECHO @PROMPT DEL >%temp%.\tmplist1.bat
DIR/A-D/B/L/O/-P/S *.tmp >>%temp%.\tmplist1.bat
CTTY nul
%COMSPEC%/C%temp%.\tmplist1.bat >%temp%.\tmplist2.bat
FIND ":\" <%temp%.\tmplist2.bat>%temp%.\tmplist3.bat
CALL %temp%.\tmplist3.bat
CTTY con
DEL %temp%.\tmplist?.bat
