I know how to delete a single sub folder or multiple ones by mask:
rmdir /s /q C:\Somedir\DirToDelete
or
rmdir /s /q C:\Somedir\DirsToDelete*
But I want to delete all sub folders, say, with name DeleteMe, from all sub folders within C:\Somedir.
Ideas?
This will find all files named filename, recursively from the current directory, and pass them to chmod.
find -name filename | xargs chmod 755
See the manpages for find and xargs for more advanced options. In particular, look at the -print0 flag and corresponding -0 to xargs if you get errors about files with spaces in the name.

First you want to list all the directories you want to remove. Then use that to delete them all. Here's a quick and dirty example using what you put in there.
Please test this out before you kick it off for your environment. I usually would replace the rmdir with echo to make sure it works.
