Hi I want to write a batch file that will search a folder and copy the names of all the files in that folder to a textfile. I tried the "list_of_files" command but that gives me extra information like size of file , time modified etc which I do not want. The batch file i am looking for will simply output the names of all files to a text file without any other info. Could someone help me with this? thanks

dir /b /a-d [your folder name] > [your output file.txt]

If you want subdirectories, add /s.

This link might help with some of the other flags you can pass to dir.
