Windows 10: Is there any way to autosave .txt's on shutdown?

Title

I am a big fan of the notepad feature. When I turn my computer on in the morning I usually pull up google, steam, discord, a few other things, and my main notepad that I keep open and edit throughout the day.

I do my stuff and at the end of the day I go to turn off my computer and monitor and walk away... but I always forget to save the notepad. I then have to go turn back on my monitor, navigate to saving the .txt, and then shut it down again. Is there any setting in windows to autosave all open .txt files on shutdown?

I suggest the following simple steps:

1. Set the autosave options in MS Office to a low value say 5 minutes.
2. Setup file history to autosave frequently - the shortest period is 5 mins
3. Install Macrium Reflect Free and configure it to do a daily incremental system backup

You should be well covered if you do the above to protect your key files.

 

Generating a .txt based file list in Windows 7

No, that > bla.txt is the target file to write to. You could use a wildcard in the argument, ie c:\windows\*.txt which would list all dlls in c:\windows. But adding that to a simple right-click would be tricky.

Basically you would execute fancyfile.bat c:\windows\*.txt, fancyfile.bat would then write all .txt files to bla.txt.

 

Generating a .txt based file list in Windows 7

I want to be able to generate a .txt file that lists all the files and folders in a specific folder on my PC, but don't know the name of any programs that do that. Searched on google a bit and came up with this guide, but it's for XP and I can't seem to find some of the folder options to modify the .bat file. Any suggestions? Thanks

EDIT: The .bat file will do what I want if it is in the folder I want to do it in, but the option I want to add is having the right click option that it shows.
