Use File.Delete() multiple times.

But this is a Cookies cleaner. I dont know each files filename. I would like
to just delete all files from the directory.

Use a loop.

foreach (string fileName in Directory.GetFi les("path/to/files"))
File.Delete(fil eName);

omg, man!

foreach (string fileName in Directory.GetFi les("path/to/files"))
{
if (Path.GetFileNa me(fileName) != "index.dat" )
File.Delete(fil eName);
}

that's it, really worth waiting for someone to answer instead of turning the
brain on!

Thats not what I want. I want the app to SKIP the file.

Why don't you hire a programmer to write the code?
