View the content of a .bat file through command prompt

The Powershell script below gets the content of the file myfile.bat, check if the string ipconfig is present. If yes, the file is deleted.

$file = 'c:\temp\myfile.bat`
$a = Get-Content $file | Select-String ipconfig
if( $a.Length -gt 0){Remove-Item $file}

To include a folder for example your Desktop, change the script as shown below. Replace mthecodeexpert with your real username.

$folder = 'c:\users\thecodeexpert\*.bat'
$files = Get-ChildItem $folder -file
$files | ForEach-Object{ $a = Select-String -Path $_.Fullname ipconfig; if ($a.Length -gt 0){Remove-Item $_.Fullname}}
