🧹 CleanUnrealProject.bat

A simple Windows batch script to clean up unnecessary folders and files generated by Unreal Engine projects and development tools like Visual Studio and Rider.

🚀 What It Does

Deletes common generated folders and files such as:

• .idea (JetBrains Rider)
• .vs (Visual Studio)
• .vscode (VS Code)
• Binaries/
• Build/
• DerivedDataCache/
• Intermediate/
• Saved/
• *.sln (solution files)
• .vsconfig (Visual Studio settings)

The script:

• 🔁 Recursively deletes each folder/file without prompts.
• 📝 Logs all actions (deleted, skipped, not found).
• 📋 Displays the log in the terminal at the end.
• 🧽 Cleans up the log file automatically.

📦 Usage

1. Copy CleanUnrealProject.bat into the root of your Unreal Engine project.
2. Double-click it, or run it from the command line:

   CleanUnrealProject.bat

Let me know if you want:

• 📁 A version that works recursively in subdirectories.
• 🧪 A dry-run mode that shows what would be deleted.
• 📘 Instructions for adding it to your project Git repo with .gitignore best practices.

⚠️ Warning This script permanently deletes folders that Unreal Engine and IDEs regenerate automatically. Make sure you're not storing any custom or uncommitted files in those folders before running it.
