How to save file structure to text file?

问题:

I have a folder of media files that are about 1TB big. I want to save the file names and directory structure to a text file for backup and reference. I want to attach a batch or PowerShell script to my backup process so the file gets saved before the backup. Does anyone know an easy way to do this?

回答1:

You can use the built in tree.com utility:

tree c:\folder /F

There's also a PowerShell function, Show-Tree, in PSCX 2.0:

a pure dir solution

dir /b /s c:\folder >foldertree.txt

has the advantages over Shay and mjolinor solutions that

1. it does not require powershell, just a plain cmd command
2. the result list contains the fully specified filenames which is a better format for postprocessing of any kind.

To just save the directory structure and file names:

get-childitem <dir> -recurse | select -expand fullname > dirtree.txt

回答4:

Open powershell in the folder then run this to show the files tree in your powershell:

tree /a /f

or save it as txt file:

tree /a /f > tree.txt
