Depends on the operating system...In Windows (with a command prompt open and the current directory is this data folder): del a*.txtThe del command is used to delete files and takes an argument containing the name of the file. Wildcards, such as * (denotes "any number of characters"), are used to take action on any items in the folder that meet the requirements.

How do you delete 0 byte files using DOS?
The command for deleting a file in DOS is DEL. If the file you are trying to delete is in the current directory, type DEL followed by the full filename. E.g. del file001.txt If there are multiple files, the wildcard * can be used. del file*.txt will delete all the text files that start with 'file' del file*.* will delete all the files that start with file. del *.txt will delete all the text files. del *.* will delete all the files in the current directory. It is possible to delete files in another directory by typing the full path and filename del c:\folder01\*.* will delete all the files in the directory c:\folder01\ DEL will not affect hidden files, but careless use of this command could damage your operating system so use with care.
