I'm triying to get a list of files of subfolders in a inverse order using this:
for /f "tokens=*" %%f in ('dir /s /b /o-n') do (echo %%f)
I'm getting this result
folder1\file2, folder1\file, folder2\file2, folder2\file1, folder3\file2, folder3\file1
And I want to get the reverse order in folders and files, not only files of folders. Something like this
folder3\file2, folder3\file1, folder2\file2, folder2\file1\, folder1\file2, folder1\file1
How can I do this?
#echo off
for /f "tokens=*" %%f in ('dir /s /b /o-n') do (echo %%f >> tempfile.123)
C:\Windows\System32\sort.exe /R tempfile.123
del tempfile.123
This just echoes your files to tempporary file and then revereses it. Sorry for the full path to sort.exe but I have cygwin installed. In case you want proper temporary file name I reccomend this http://unserializableone.blogspot.com/2009/04/create-unique-temp-filename-with-batch.html
try this
for /f "tokens=*" %%f in ('dir /s /b /o-n')
do (
SET OUTPUT=%OUTPUT%, %%f
)
echo %OUTPUT%
run a first loop to get first level subdir then run you command on each of them
#echo off
for /f "tokens=*" %%f in ('dir c:\temp\so\ /b /o-n /AD') do (call :filesOf %%f)
:next
echo next
pause
:filesOf
echo "files for ******** %1 *********"
if ("%1"=="") goto next else(
for /f "tokens=*" %%i in ('dir c:\temp\so\%1 /s /b /o-n ') do echo "***%%i***"
)
it will be difficult to handle multi level subdirs tough

I would like to write a .bat file to move the two last modified files of a specific extension *.bak in directory a to a different directory.
I used this line to copy files:
robocopy D:\DailyBackup\IDMRObjects\SQLBackups SQLBackups *.bak /S
I'm new with this and have no idea how to tweak this to get the result I need.
Thanks
not tested:
#echo off
for /f "tokens=* delims=" %%# in (' dir /a:-d /o:-d /t:a /b "D:\DailyBackup\IDMRObjects\SQLBackups SQLBackups\*.bak"') do (
if not defined last set "pre_last=%%~f#"
set "last=%%~f#"
)
copy /y "%last%" "c:\new_dir"
copy /y "%pre_last%" "c:\new_dir"
#echo off
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
cd "D:\DailyBackup\IDMRObjects\SQLBackups"
set copied=0
for /F "delims=" %%a in ('dir /B /A-D /O-D /T:W *.bak') do (
copy "%%a" "other\dir"
set /A copied+=1
if !copied! equ 2 goto break
)
:break
I have a window directory with 300 folders inside of it and 4 levels of folders within each folder. I need a listing of folders only up to 2nd level in a txt file? I need the full path of each directory as well. I would like to use this a BAT file or CMD line prompt. Ex:
Jon Done
Test001
Tester002
Test003
Tester004
Can anyone help me to do this?
#ECHO OFF
SETLOCAL
SET "sourcedir=U:\sourcedir"
PUSHD "%sourcedir%"
FOR /f "delims=" %%a IN ('dir /b /a-d 2^>nul') DO ECHO %%~fa
FOR /f "delims=" %%a IN ('dir /b /ad') DO (
PUSHD "%%a"
FOR /f "delims=" %%x IN ('dir /b /a-d 2^>nul') DO ECHO %%~fx
popd
)
popd
GOTO :EOF
This should work - you would need to change the setting of sourcedir to suit your circumstances.
for /f "tokens=* delims=" %%a in ('dir "recordings.txt" /s /b') do (
echo %%a
)
Is this the correct format to look on the Z: drive for files in the recordings.txt?
Tried powershell don't have permissions on the server
Contents of the file just have the file name / extension
3030009948_3030009912_df1389947f0fb80d62832122.sasf
The Directory structure of Z: is as follows
MM\dd\hh\mm\
recordings.txt is on the Desktop of my userprofile
I also need the paths of the found files
This should read recordings.txt on your desktop and create recordings-results.txt in the same place with the full path to every file inside it.
#echo off
dir /b /s /a-d "z:\" >"%temp%\results.tmp"
del "%userprofile%\desktop\recordings-results.txt" 2>nul
for /f "usebackq delims=" %%a in ("%userprofile%\desktop\recordings.txt") do (
echo finding "%%a"
findstr /i /c:"%%a" "%temp%\results.tmp" >>"%userprofile%\desktop\recordings-results.txt"
)
del "%temp%\results.tmp"
pause
This should be even faster:
#echo off
dir /b /s /a-d "z:\" >"%temp%\results.tmp"
findstr /i /g:"%userprofile%\desktop\recordings.txt" "%temp%\results.tmp" >"%userprofile%\desktop\recordings-results.txt"
del "%temp%\results.tmp"
pause
Dir is to look into a directory if you want to get a value from a file use :
for /f "tokens=*" %%a in ('type "Z:\recordings.txt"') do (
echo %%a
)
I have a folder with all jpg and this is format 1UYK08HJ_20140403165858071_SYPTE1-PC but i want it rename like this
1UYK08HJ_SYPTE1-PC_20140403165858071.jpg. but when i run this script it always ends up with
.%~nA_1UYK08HJ.jpg.jpg.jpg
this is my batch script..
#echo off
pushd "C:\Users\IT-Administrator\Desktop\export" || exit /b
for /f "eol=: delims=" %%F in ('dir /b /a-d *_*.jpg') do (
for /f "tokens=1* eol=_ delims=_" %%A in ("%%F") do ren "%%F" "%%~nA_%%B%%~xF"
)
popd
This should do it:
#echo off
pushd "C:\Users\IT-Administrator\Desktop\export" || exit /b
for /f "tokens=1-4 delims=_." %%A in ('dir /b /a-d *_*.jpg') do (
Echo ren %%A_%%B_%%C.%%D %%A_%%C_%%B.%%D
)
popd
Remove the echo when you see correct output.
In the (Window's) folder's command line(cmd) run
ren *.* *.jpg
I'm trying to write a batch file that will be run on a parent directory and will loop through subdirectories removing all but the newest 3 files from each subdirectory. What I have now recurses through the subdirectories but only skips the 3 newest files that it comes across, not the three newest files in each subdir. I think I need another loop in the code, but need help with where and what it should be. Help!
What I have so far - just ECHOing the output for now as a test.
#echo off
pushd "%~1"
for /f "skip=3 delims=" %%F in (
'dir /s /a-d /o-d /b') do ECHO del "%%F" /f
popd
You might try this:
#echo off
pushd "%~1"
for /D %%i in (*) do (
pushd "%%~i"
for /f "skip=3 delims=" %%F in (
'dir /a-d /o-d /b') do ECHO del /f "%%~F"
popd
)
popd
