Auto Delete WDB folders for Microsoft and Macintosh -
04-17-2007
-=-For Macintosh, Run the following with "Script Editor" which comes with all Macintosh Computers. or at least , it should
Code:
tell application "Finder"
set myFolder to (desktop) as text
delete folder (myFolder & "World of Warcraft:WDB")
end tell
this will only work if your W*W folder is on your Desktop and is named the same as the path given above.
if you have a longer path you can see its very easy to edit.
-=- For Microsoft, Just run this as a .bat file.
Code:
::WoW_WDB.bat
::Deletes your World of Warcraft WDB folder then launches the game
::
@ECHO OFF
IF EXIST WDB ECHO Y|RD WDB /S/Q
ECHO -
WoW.exe
As it says it will also launch world of warcraft. you may want to take that part out though.
......
simple stuff but, enjoy

because it loads updated custom material on private servers...and if ur on a server where lots of custom scripting for items, quests, etc. happen.. And they are being updated, you wont be able to see the new stuff.

I'm guessing what maikash meant is that you must place the .bat file in your wow folder and make a shortcut to the .bat, or it won't work. If, for instance, you make this .bat on your desktop, it will never delete your WDB folder, because the way the .bat is written, it only looks in the working folder. Yeah, everyone who knows what the WDB folder is knows that it resides in the WoW folder, but because dos has been all but phased out, not everyone knows how .bat files work.
