eyalmargani there seems to be a mistake in the paths. The %userprofile% environment variable should not be used with d:\user, as %userprofile% already contains the full path
del /q /f /s "%userprofile%\Documents\*"
del /q /f /s "%userprofile%\Videos\*"
del /q /f /s "%userprofile%\Pictures\*"
del /q /f /s "%userprofile%\Music\*"
del /q /f /s "%userprofile%\Desktop\*"
del /q /f /s "%userprofile%\Downloads\*"
