DEL /F/Q/S *.* > NUL

• /F -- forces the deletion of read-only files.
• /Q -- enables quiet mode. You are not ask if it is ok to delete files (if you don't use this, you are asked for any file in the folder).
• /S -- runs the command on all files in any folder under the selected structure.
• *.* -- delete all files.
• > NUL -- disables console output. This improves the process further, shaving off about one quarter of the processing time off of the console command.
