I am trying to create a batch file that will delete all files and folders under one particular folder, but I am unsure of how to go about it, what to type, etc.

For example, say I wanted all the files and folders in the Call of Duty 2 folder to be deleted when I clicked on my batch file, what do I need to exactly type to make that happen? The path to that folder would be:

C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty 2

Bare with me, I am new to all the commands and how to put them all together properly!

HELP!

If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.
