Solve : Log file from batch file?

Answer»

I created this batch file (XP Cleanup.bat) to faster automate deleting temporary files.  I CURRENTLY have the batch file logging the user, start, and end time of when it ran.  I would like to have a more detailed log file. For example how many files from each location were deleted and the time to do it. I am not SURE that this is even possible.  I found that USING the command (dir "%userprofile%\COOKIES" /b/s /a-d |find /v /c "::" >> Cleanup.txt) would GIVE me the number of cookies/files in the “Cookies” folder. When I try to create a variable with the command (dir "%userprofile%\cookies" /b/s /a-d |find /v /c "::" ) it errors.  Can anyone help me?

Thank you.
