Windows 10: need help creating a file/folder listing *.bat file

pretty much as the subject states, l had one in the past but l cant remember where l put it and forget how it was written.

basically l just want a script that lists files and folders in a specific directory without listing the sub folders within that dir (just a bog standard list of files and folders without any other information).

a bonus would be if l were able to have it on my send to menu and it saved the text file to that folder. basically put l just want to output a list files and folders in specific directory.

any help would be gratefully appreciated.

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.

 

Batch Files Knowledge Base

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.
