When executing the del delete command, if it succeeds there is no echo output at all; if it fails there will be prompts like file does not exist, etc.
Now I want a prompt after success so it can be distinguished from other cases.
I tried the parameters of del and none of them can do it. Only the /s parameter gives a prompt when deleting a single file, but /s will recursively delete files with the same name in subdirectories, so it isn't safe.
Are there any other delete commands that have this function?

I wrote an echo %errorlevel% command that can show whether the deletion succeeded (actually using dir filename to see whether it still exists), but if I write it on separate lines in a bat it works, while if I write it on one line it may not work because of the & syntax. Please help me see what the problem is:

Successful two-line script:

del t.txt 

@echo off&dir t.txt>nul 2>&1 

echo %errorlevel% &@echo on

Unsuccessful one-line script:

del t.txt 

@echo off&dir t.txt>nul 2>&1 &echo %errorlevel% &@echo on

The so-called compound thing, because it's in the same statement~
This was discussed before, I forgot the reason.
If it's on the same line, using enabled variable expansion !! should work

del t.txt 

@echo off&setlocal enabledelayedexpansion &dir t.txt>nul 2>nul &echo !errorlevel! &@echo on

And there's another way:

del t.txt

@echo off &(dir t.txt>nul 2>nul&&echo 0)||(echo 1)

When should delayed expansion be used?
