Combine two commands
-
Is there a way to combine delete browser history and the clean up commands? Possibly clearing Chromes history as well as internet explorer?
-
@mark-kreger, you could create a c:\tools folder, and in it, create a ClearHistory.bat file in it with these contents:
REM Clear IE history: rundll32.exe InetCpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 255 REM Clear Chrome history: cd /d C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data del /s History*
Then create a TRIGGERcmd command that runs c:\tools\ClearHistory.bat
-
I have the issue that the cmd window stays open after executing the bat file.
Usually cmd.exe /c or start /c would close the window. Here adding /c would not work at all.
Thoughts? -
You should just be able to add an "Exit" command at the end of your batch.
Or, you can 'pipeline' your commands by putting the | command in between them:
cd /d C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data | del /s History*
