If you want a simple list of the subfolders in a folder simply create a .txt file at the root and enter:

dir /a:d /b > list.txt

. . . then save it and change the file extension to '.bat'. Double-click on it and a file name 'list.txt' will be generated with just the subfolder names - no files at the root will be included.


 
 

If you want to get a list of which file extensions on your PC open with which programs by default, go to Windows Search, type cmd for Command Prompt, and then simply type 'assoc' at the Command Prompt and press enter. A long list will be generated of file extensions and associated programs.


 
 

If you have documents in a folder that you want to copy to a flash drive but not include documents from a different production try this command in Windows:
