i am facing the same problem can u help

Save the below content in a python file ---- run.py

Run the command on shell ------- python run.py

import os
directory = os.getcwd()

for filename in os.scandir(directory):
if filename.is_file():
os.remove(filename)

I mostly use python and I use the os module in this kind of situations on repl. Especially when I'm working in the root folder. Here's an example code

import os

cwd = os.getcwd()
test = os.listdir(cwd)

for item in test:
if item.endswith(".mp3"):
os.remove(os.path.join(cwd, item))

I put them all in the same folder and then deleted it.

Still took forever, but at least it was faster.

Would be nice! You can use the shell pretty easily too though, so very happy they have that there!

I agree, this is a big problem. I created a program to extract images from a video every so many seconds. Unfortunately I ran it in the background for a while while answering email and now I have hundred of files to delete manually. If there is no solution, I may have to write a program to delete them!
