I currently have a logoff script that erases shortcuts off a users desktop and leaves only the All Users shortcuts which admins can control. The only issue is that I have noticed that users have been saving folders to the desktop I cannot figure out a way to delete them off the desktop. I have tried the following script with no luck.

this: rd "%userprofile%"\Desktop /s /q should remove the whole destop folder with the subfolders and files,
but if you want to remove the individual folders, this should work in an english windows:
@echo off cd "%userprofile%"\Desktop if "%1"==":rd" goto rd if exist %temp%\temprd01.tmp del %temp%\temprd01.tmp >nul dir /a:d | find "<DIR>" | find /v "<DIR> .." | find /v "<DIR> .">%temp%\temprd01.tmp for /f "tokens=2 delims=<DIR>" %%I in (%temp%\temprd01.tmp) do call %0 :rd %%I :rd if "%2"=="" goto EOF set var=%* set var=%var:~14% rd "%var%" /s /q :EOF
