Delete a file with multiple instances and variable path

OK, so I'd like to make a part of a script that deletes a file called login.swf

typically, a couple of instances of it will exist after LoL patches and the path can vary, like so:

C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\RADS\projects\lol_air_client\releases\0.0. 1.79\deploy\mod\lgn\themes\loginRumbleSupergalaxy

and

C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\RADS\projects\lol_air_client\releases\0.0. 1.79\deploy\mod\lgn\themes\loginVelkoz


Also, the "0.0.1.79" can change depending on the patch, so it would need to be a wildcard.

I understand I need to use the fuction

FileDelete ( "filename" )

but am not sure how to handle multiple instances of the file as well as the varying path structure. Any help would be much appreciated.

You can get the directories in a folder which you don't know what their name is.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

Well I can see how that would be good for finding folders, but don't understand how that helps me find and delete my login.swf

Would it be like ? :

#include <File.au3>
_FileListToArray ("C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\RADS\projects\lol_air_client\releases\", login.swf, 1, True)

Didn't you read my post? If you have looked it up on the help file you'll notice that _FileListToArray also returns folders (if you use the right parameters for it) and you wrote that you have different folder names.
_FileListToArray is to find the varying folders and FileDelete for deleting it after you found the folders with _FileListToArray.

I'm glad I could help, maybe you should try to use the thanks button to say thanks:p

Really? Why don't you use For-Loops instead?

Cause I prefer the Do-Loop?

who cares..

Ha ha ha

Why AutoIt have 3 loop function
I always use For and While but I use Do a little or never :'(

While/For: The expression is tested before the loop is executed so the loop will be executed zero or more times.
Do: The expression is tested after the loop is executed, so the loop will be executed one or more times.
