You're missing a backslash in the path.

Try del /s /q /f "F:\bckup\*.bak"

  • I really can't understand how it's possible to not only make typo (it happens), not notice it (it happens too), not notice it when troubleshooting (even this happens)... but to even *post a question here including the typo and not noticing it again*. Do people ever re-read what they write? – Massimo Feb 19 '21 at 20:27
  • well it could be that he use native paths, however `forfiles` can be also a choice if you're planning to make a delay on the deletion – djdomi Feb 20 '21 at 16:20
