I have a huge folder G:\Manga, in it are the subfolders, and I want to list only names of all subfolders within this folder G:\Manga to txt file.
how can I do this?

Using the cmd prompt, change to the parent directory and run this . . .

Code:

dir /s /a /b /o:n > "%UserProfile%\Desktop\List.txt"

I hope this helps.

Thanks for that Paul; tried to rep you but no can do until I spread more around.

Played with that and found that this works to grab the subfolders too:

dir /s /a /b /o:n > d:\downloads\folderlist.txt

That's what I put.

Have you put Dir /? in a Command Prompt window to see the switches you can use?

Hello @Takeshi18 [ @ignatzatsonic ] ,

I have just written this script that will do what you want . . .

Code:

@echo off
set "Out=%UserProfile%\Desktop\Folders_Sub-Folders.txt"
if exist "%OUT%" (del /f /q "%OUT%" >nul 2>&1)
set /a count=0
for /f "tokens=*" %%A in ('dir /s /b /a:d /o:n ^| findstr /v /i "%Out%"') do (
  set /a count+=1
>> "%Out%" echo %%A
)
>> "%Out%" echo ============================================================================== 
>> "%Out%" echo Folders: %count%
>> "%Out%" echo ==============================================================================
   echo. & echo ^>Press ANY key to EXIT . . . & pause > nul & cls & goto :Exit
:Exit

Copy the script into Notepad and save it as a .bat file. Put the .bat file in the directory [ Parent directory ] where you want the information. It will output a text file on the desktop named Folders_Sub-Folders.txt.

I hope this helps.

Dir /? gets a list with the number of Directories [old DOS term for Folders] and Files, my list of C:\
