'Rm' Is Not Recognized as an Internal or External Command While Using Meteor on Windows

Use del on Windows.

Also, this has nothing to do with Meteor. You can also delete a Meteor project by going to the folder and dragging it to the trash.

If you are on windows, git bash may run such commands.

If you are using Mac then we can simply use

rm -f src/*

and For windows we can use command for this is

 del -f "src/*"

Hope this works fine for you.

Download and Extract PortableGit.

This has most of commonly used Linux based tools ported to windows.

Add [PortableGit Path]\usr\bin to PATH variable of Windows

You can also use your system's Git installation instead of PortableGit.

This should solve the problem

I'm running Git shell prompt and for some reason it doesn't have it any more. I ended up using Cygin to get it working:

My penny's worth.

You could potentially add rm to powershell. In your (or a) profile.ps1 (or other if your powershell is not core).

rm {
  del
}

or as an alias

Set-Alias rm del

or (and this is a tricky one), run WSL, bind the target folder and run via the linux interface.

PS: running the command via the Git Bash (MINGW64) terminal as suggested above, did the trick for me.

I guess you are not using bash terminal. Try this..

1- Go to the folder that you want to remove its contents lets call it my-app folder.

2- Right click in the empty space, then choose get Bash here.

3- Paste the command rm -f A_folder/* (I'm about to remove the content inside A_folder folder which is a sub-folder inside my-app).

4- Hit enter.

That should remove all content from A_folder folder. Hope that helps.

first, install linux clients for windows, I use Ubunto LTS then install node.js and run your command again. here, you find good instructions to do it so, as well as how to install cool new Windows Terminal

you should add "remove-build": "rmdir /s /q build", "create-build": "mkdir build", "clean": "npm run remove-build && npm run create-build",

in package.json
