Deleting Folder Through DOS

URGENT PROBLEM! PLEASE CONSIDER!

I have recently run into a little problem while fixing a friends computer. This computer has not been wiped in over 3 years, so the file build up is huge. The owned instead of clearing the drive, reinstalled Windows only adding to the clutter.

This computer also did not have the Server packs installed, so to begin I tried to install the service packs. Everything went well until I had to reboot the computer via the updates. Turns out the hard drive only has about 100 MB of space left. Now the computer is somehow stuck in a constant cycle of startups. I cold boot it only to have it constantly restart over and over.

I suspect that the hard drive does not have enough space for Windows to configure itself, so I must delete some large files. Now here is the dilemma:

The large files are located on the secondary user of the computer, which I'll call user2. The file is located at c:/programfiles/gamefolder on the second user.

I have no experience with DOS, so if someone could please give me a step by step in deleting this fold I would very much appreciate it.

Thank you.

Which version of Windows (9x/Me/XP/NT/2K)?

What is the exact "drive:\path\filename.ext" of the file(s) you want deleted?

If you want to delete the whole folder, what is the exact "drive:\foldername\subfolder" name?

Thank you soo much for the quick reply!

Windows XP

I want to delete the whole folder to open up space. The folder is located at: c:/programfiles/lineage2 (the exact path).
But whats getting me is this second user. Would it be safe to say this folder exists on both users (both users are Admin accounts). There is only one hard drive so its not that complex

Thanks in advance

*Edit
Would typing: "DEL c:/programfiles/lineage2/" delete the desired folder from the c:/ drive?

The command to remove the "lineage2" folder, (and all of its contents), from within the "c:\programfiles" folder would be:

rd /s /q c:\programfiles\lineage2

If there is supposed to be a space between "program" and "files" (like there is on most XP computers), the command would be:

rd /s /q "c:\program files\lineage2"

(Note the double-quotes).
