I have a game the allows the user to save the game in a file. I have a
new update coming out the will make the previous saved games not work.
Is the any way to delete all the files that my program created?

I have been serializing the games and saving them like this:

ObjectOutputStream os = new ObjectOutputStream(openFileOutput(gameName
+ ".sav", 0));
os.writeObject(gameObject);

I know I can go through the list of games and do something like this

for(GameName name : gameList)
{
 deleteFile(name + ".sav");
}

I would like to know if I can clear out files that I may not know
about like if the game name has changed is a previous version.

In short this is a major update and I would love to force the user to
make a fresh install, deleting all files, preferences and database
info. Is there an easy way to do this?
