How to remove files starting with dot (.) from a directory?

Question

I have a list of files and folders inside a directory. For example, .jazz or .project file after a checkout.

I am using batch script currently, May I know how to remove .jazz or .project files from my Jenkins workspace ?

Just so we are clear the file name starting with a dot is really irrelevant to your question. Ultimately you just need a file mask that matches the file names you want to delete. — Squashman, Dec 06 '21 at 15:52

Just like @Squashman said in the comments, you can use the wildcard symbol * combined with anything.

So in your case it is: del /f ".jazz*" Use del /f /s ".jazz*" if there are directories too.

See this documentation for more information.
