  1. How to create a text file with all files on a drive along with dates created?


    What command would create a text file containing all of my directories and files on my c: drive, but also list the dates each one was created? I have done tree /f /a text document.txt which gave me all of the files but no dates.

    Don't use batch files very much but one I find useful is for creating a list of files in a directory.
    Just copy the text below into Notepad and save as Filelist.bat

    dir /a /-p /o:gen >filelist.txt

    When you run it from a folder it will create a Filelist.txt file,in the same folder, that lists all the files in that folder.Useful when you are too lazy to type all the files out yourself.
