So here is my issue, i would like to delete folders that are located in 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata'
so to be clear in userdata there is multiple folder, and i want to clear userdata(remove everything in userdata) but i dont want to delete userdata itself.
i tried multiple things but so far none worked, i was only able to delete.txt like:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <cstdio>
int main() {
remove("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Steam\\userdata\\test.txt");
system("pause");
}
I thinks, You need Permission for doing file operations in C Drive, Just run your program with adminstrator rights!
You could call std::filesystem::remove_all
, but this also removes the supplied directory. Because of the requirement that the parent directory remain, you'll have to use a loop:
#include <filesystem>
int main() {
for(std::filesystem::recursive_directory_iterator iter{std::filesystem::path{"C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/userdata/"}};
std::filesystem::recursive_directory_iterator{};
++iter)
{
std::filesystem::remove(*iter);
}
}
