How to get a list of sub-folders and their files, ordered by folder-names

Viewed 344710

Can I use dir command-line to get a list of sub-folders and their files, ordered by folder-names, and not just file-names ?

using

dir /s/b/o:gn > f.txt

I first get all sub-folders and only then all sub files, e.g.:

 d:\root0\root1\folderA
 d:\root0\root1\folderB
 d:\root0\root1\file00.txt
 d:\root0\root1\file01.txt
 d:\root0\root1\folderA\fileA00.txt
 d:\root0\root1\folderA\fileA01.txt
 d:\root0\root1\folderB\fileB00.txt
 d:\root0\root1\folderB\fileB01.txt

But I want to get -

d:\root0\root1\file00.txt
d:\root0\root1\file01.txt
d:\root0\root1\folderA
d:\root0\root1\folderA\fileA00.txt
d:\root0\root1\folderA\fileA01.txt
d:\root0\root1\folderB
d:\root0\root1\folderB\fileB00.txt
d:\root0\root1\folderB\fileB01.txt

["file00.txt" and "file01.txt" can also be at the end of the list]

Thanks,

dir /b /a-d /s *.* will fulfill your requirement.

Best way i found if you want to use Powershell:

Get-childitem -path "C:\your\path\here\" -recurse -name | out-file C:\your\path\to\textfile\here\files.txt

Then you will get the filenames inside the folder and subfolders written in a textfile.
