Intune Powershell Script to delete Folders
Hi,
I'm no expert in Powershell, and I'm willing to delete folders on computers that are managed by Intune.
I already tried some scripts in Powershell to run in Intune, but I have no success in deleting the folders.
How should I do it?
Folder is located:
c:\Users\STUDENTNAME\Appdata\Local\FOLDERtoDELETE
and
c:\Users\STUDENTNAME\Appdata\Roaming\FOLDERtoDELETE
I've tried this script in Platform scripts:
$foldersToCheck = @(
"${env:LOCALAppData}\FOLDERtoDELETE_1",
"${env:AppData}\FOLDERtoDELETE_2",
"${env:ProgramFiles}\FOLDERtoDELETE_3",
"${env:ProgramFiles(x86)}\FOLDERtoDELETE_4"
)
foreach ($folderPath in $foldersToCheck) {
if (Test-Path $folderPath -PathType Container) {
try {
Remove-Item -Path $folderPath -Recurse -Force -ErrorAction Stop
Write-Host "Folder '$folderPath' has been deleted."
} catch {
Write-Host "Error deleting folder '$folderPath': $_"
}
} else {
Write-Host "Folder '$folderPath' does not exist."
}
}
Thank you very much in advance!
- Are you running this script as the user and not as a system?
- Do you mean "Run this script using the logged on credentials"?
It's set as "No", should it be set as "Yes"?ruisampaio It should be Yes. Because you want to remove folders in the appdata folder of the user (And not from System)
