Hi everyobdy
I am trying a quite simple thing: delete the flash cookies on my machine with AutoIt. But somehow i don't get it, the script is never able to delete anything.
What I tried is:
Delete the whole folder and recreate it:
DirRemove() returns always '0'
Delete folder content with FileDelete() by only giving it the path to the folder (manual says, that it will delete all files in the folder then). But returns only '0'.
Delete folder content with FileFindFirstFile() and FileFindNextFile() and FileDelete(). Result same as above.
Does anyone see the mistake? Does the script simply not have the rights to delete these files?
Thanks in advance!
