title: Delete only directory contents using chef
body: <p>Is there a way I can delete only the contents of a directory without deleting the actual parent directory? When I use recursive and action delete, the actual parent directory is also getting deleted.</p>
  
  <p>If I specify a path C:\chef\mydir, then all the contents of this dir (files and sub directories) must get deleted, basically emptying. I am in a Windows environment.</p>
  
  <p>Any guidance in the right direction would be much appreciated.</p>
