who here knows dos?
 
I have dozens of thumbs.db files in a certain directory and theyre large. How can I delete them all in dos?

I dont want to have to fish through every subdirectory to find them in windows because there are hundreds, isn't it easy to do this in dos?

or if they are all in a subdirectory off a main folder, and you have no use for any of the subdirectories you can always use the deltree command

C:\DOS

C:\DOS RUN

Run DOS Run
