Remove complete angular project built with Yeoman

问题:

i used yeoman to scaffolding angular project structure, but now i have problem to remove all contents under the root folder, there's this "node_modules" folder, i can't delete it. My OS is win7, does anybody know how to delete the project completely?

I encountered this same issue when I tried to remove a node based application on my own Windows 7 box. I used this tool to remove the folder.

Its written in Java so that is the only requirement. Its free and open source.

This can be easily accomplished using the in-built Windows tool called robocopy which basically clones one directory into another. Create a new empty directory in the same location and use robocopy as shown below.

mkdir new_dir
robocopy /MIR new_dir long_name_dir

Create a mapping to a drive letter.

subst x: C:\Folder1\Folder2\Folder3\Folder4\Folder5

Then go to x: and delete the files (they now have a smaller path)

Next delete the mapping

subst x: /D

When try to delete, windows prompt a dialog saying: the folder contains items whose name is too long for recycle bin. Win7 can't handle this, you can use 7-zip's file manager to delete them.

if you have winrar installed in your pc then right click your app folder, click 'add to archive' option then tick the 'delete files after archiving', then delete the archived file. :)
