I'm trying to create a batch script to delete all folders having "Exception_" in it's name from the current folder in a remote desktop. I used this answer to a previous question to come up with the below script.



  @echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
rem find directories called Exception_
for /f "usebackq tokens=*" %%i in (`dir /b /s /a:d Exception_`) do (
rem delete the directories and any files or subdirectories
rd /s /q "%%i"
)
endlocal


However, the command prompt is showing that UNC paths are not supported. Any way to make this work ?
