Are you serious Powershell !!!!?

Okay, now I’ve got that out of the way, I wrote a little Powershell command to delete the *.deleteme files as well as the folders they refer to that Nuget occasionally seems to leave behind when updating packages.

So I developed the script on the command line and all looked good so decided to turn it into a function to add to $profile.

The function kept failing with the error “Supply values for the following paraneters: Process[0]”.

This appears because my foreach looked like this

foreach 
{ 
   // some functionality
}

and even though we think that the curly brace is the block (as it is in C#) it appears we need to place the first curly brace on the same line as the foreach, thus

foreach { 
   // some functionality
}

Here's the script, when it was completed

[code language="csharp"]
function Delete-DeleteMeAndFolder
{
   ls "*.deleteme" | 
   foreach { 
      rm -Recurse -Force $_.Name.Replace(".deleteme", "")
      del $_.Name
   }
}
