Hello friends, how are you? First of all sorry for my poor English.
As it says in the title, you would need a script that loops through all the files and folders in a directory, and I generate a log with the size of each file and folder. Is there any way?
Thank you!
Greetings!

do you want it to recurse through sub directories or do you really want just one folder.

For the Size of each folder;

Current folder only;


All sub folders from current for in a batch file;


All sub folders from current in the Command Prompt;


Output

Code: Select all

dir /A-D %A\*.*^|find "File(s)" 2>nul 1>"File List.txt"

All sub folders from current for in a batch file;

Code: Select all

for /f "tokens=*" %%A IN ('dir /b /s /ad') DO (for /f "tokens=*" %%a IN ('dir /A-D %%A\*.*^|find "File(s)"') DO ECHO %%a IN %%A) 2>nul 1>"File List.txt"

All sub folders from current in the Command Prompt;

Code: Select all

for /f "tokens=*" %A IN ('dir /b /s /ad') DO (for /f "tokens=*" %a IN ('dir /A-D %A\*.*^|find "File(s)"') DO ECHO %a IN %A) 2>nul 1>"File List.txt"

Output

Code: Select all

1 File(s)         26,738 bytes IN C:\Users

Thank you very much friend!
I just run the script, but it generates the. Txt blank, we must add something more to the script?

I want to recurse the files and folders in a directory. Thank you!

Could it be we are thinking too complicated

@romanrsr
Would that be sufficient for you?

Change the "C:\your\folder" to the path that you want to log.

>"logfile.log" dir /a /s "C:\your\folder"

Change the "C:\your\folder" to the path that you want to log.

Unfortunately not work for me friend, archive.log opens, but does not generate anything inside.
Thank you!

That code will work just fine. Show us exactly how you used it.

This is the script that runs: >"logfile.log" dir /a /s "C:\data"

Two things can stop that running:

A) the logfile is being written to a place where you don't have write permissions, such as c:\
B) c:\data doesn't exist

You can test this by opening a cmd prompt and typing the command you listed above - you will get an error message or the logfile will contain the results.
