What is the best way to set up the Fake Delete prank?

For the best reaction, try these tips:

  • Target a directory the victim cares about, like their Documents folder, using the command line option
  • Rename the .exe to something they might click, like "Disk Cleanup" or "Free Space Tool"
  • Use the silent flag to suppress the splash screen for a cleaner look
  • Stay nearby to enjoy the reaction and quickly reveal that nothing was actually deleted
