Not knowing anything about your specific scenario, but generally deleting
folders over which you don't have control seems like a Bad Idea

The problem is the folder is not empty and I have no idea during the
installation that what it may contain. I just need to remove the folder. do
you have a code to do it. I already tried removefiles with wildcard option
but it doesnt delete all the files and folders inside the parent directory
anyway.

'rmdir' is not a separate program but a cmd.exe built-in command.
If you want to remove a directory on installation, use a RemoveFolder
element.

Hello,
I tried to run the following command:
<CustomAction Id="RemoveWebApps.Command"
Property="QtExecCmdLine" Value='"rmdir.exe" /s /q
"[%CATALINA_HOME]\webapps" '/>
<CustomAction Id="RemoveWebApps" Execute="immediate" BinaryKey="wixca"
DllEntry="CAQuietExec" Return="ignore" />
but it doesnt seem to work properly. is it technically possible to parse
switch parametes like /s /q?
Cheers,
Hooman
