Say I have the following:
C:/folder1/textfile1.txt
C:/folder1/textfile2.txt
C:/folder1/textfile3.txt
C:/folder2/textfile1.txt
C:/folder2/textfile2.txt
C:/folder2/textfile3.txt
I'd like to merge each file in folder2 with its matching file in folder1. If this is possible, how would I go about doing that? I've found a lot of stuff about merging a bunch of text files in a given folder into a single file, but nothing like this.
Thanks.

I wanted to ask for some help to extract a few things.
I have more or less 2TB of files that are zipped, and I want to unzip the .txt files and that inside that .txt file it says "Função: finalizar vendas"
There are several .rar .zip .7z files that have inside them several folders with the names of the employees, and inside the folders their respective functions, which would be inside some of the notepads.
The only thing I managed to get closer to this was in 7-Zip, with a command to extract only the .txt files from the compact files, but there are many unnecessary notepads and I just wanted the one that contains the previously said sentence.
I've downloaded the CBIS-DDSM data from the cancer imaging archive and its descriptive train/test csv files. However, I noticed that the names of the dcm files do not match the ones found in the csv files.
For example, a file named Mass-Training_P_00001_LEFT_CC/../1-1.dcm is found as Training_P_00001_LEFT_CC/../000000.dcm in the descriptive csv.
For those who have used this dataset before, how did you handle this?
Thank you for your help.
Since I do not have a lot of experience in coding batch files, I would like to ask for some helping hands.
There are multiple files in the source folder. The files list is like this.
ABCD_CH_DEFGH.XLS
ABCD_CH_DEFGH.PDF
ABCD_CH_DEFGH_001_001.XLS
ABCD_CH_DEFGH_001_001.PDF
QWER_DE_OPESADHXCS_002_002.XLS
QWER_DE_OPESADHXCS_002_002.PDF
I would need a batch file which iterates through the files in the source folder and moves only files with the substring _xxx_xxx. to an existing subfolder which are in this case:
ABCD_CH_DEFGH_001_001.XLS
ABCD_CH_DEFGH_001_001.PDF
QWER_DE_OPESADHXCS_002_002.XLS
QWER_DE_OPESADHXCS_002_002.PDF
I have a long list of files that are auto-produced every month. they'll all have the same file name, with a sequential file extension like this:file.001, file.002, file.003
Each file has differing information, despite having the same name. What I need to do is copy them from their home directory and paste them into a new directory with names that reflect their purpose, and as text files, like this: Budget.txt, Expense.txt, Retention.txt
Is it possible to do this with a batch file? I've been unable to find a method that works. Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: I've tried that solution, and it works as far as it goes. the frustrating thing is that the extensions are not always the same, but always sequentially numbered.
I searched this site but all the examples I found were when someone wanted to merge all the files into only 1 file.
I'm on Win 7 x64.
I have 2 folders with 250 text files in each and the filenames (of the text files) across both folders are the same.
Example:
Folder A:
file001.txt
file002.txt
file003.txt
Folder B:
file001.txt
file002.txt
file003.txt
The contents in all these files (and across folders), are different. The filenames themselves vary greatly, too (I just named them like above for example purposes).
Now I want to merge the files from Folder A into the files from folder B.
I want to do this:
Merge FolderA\file001.txt to FolderB\file001.txt
Merge FolderA\file002.txt to FolderB\file002.txt
etc.
So if file001.txt (Folder A) had 500 lines and file001.txt (Folder B) had 300 lines, after the merge file001.txt (Folder B) should have 800 lines.
Right now I'd have to open the file in Folder A, copy all, go to folder B, open the 2nd file, paste, save. For 250 files that's just too much.
Does anybody know of a way to batch merge text files from different folders as explained above?
I'd just love to select all 250 files in folder 1, copy them, paste into folder 2 and have them all merged to their counterparts...but I guess a solution like that doesn't exist. If you know of a program or batch command that does this, I'm all ears.
For %%a in (Folder1\*.txt) do type "%%~a" >> "Folder2\%%~nxa"
