A novelty joke script that randomly 'deletes' (or lists) half of your files, inspired by Thanos snapping his fingers. It includes a PowerShell variant that can remove files, registry entries, environment variables, functions, variables, aliases, and certificates with probability 1/2.

Use cases

  • prank script that deletes half my files randomly
  • simulate thanos snap on my filesystem
  • randomly remove half of files from a directory
  • joke command line tool to scare coworkers
  • test backup recovery by randomly deleting files
  • powershell script that removes random objects

When to choose

  • you want a fun novelty prank script for a demo or joke
  • you need a chaotic random file-deletion tool for testing backups in a sandbox

When to avoid

  • on any real production or personal system - it is genuinely destructive
  • you need reliable or safe file management
  • you want a serious data cleanup or deduplication tool
