    Hi All,

     

    I am trying to Delete an Trigger txt file from an specified path in a windows server after its purpose gets over.

    Is it possible to delete the job from UC4 end itself using the Windows Jobs Type.

     

    Please note that i was earlier able to Achive this Scenario for the UNIX job type as below,

     

    echo "Delete trigger file"
    rm -f /indata/SourceFiles/Test/sample_trigger.txt

     

    But i am not able to use this with windows type. Kindly suggest some options
