Alternative 3 FORFILES Quote IssueThis solution is straight from the last two examples in the FORFILES documentation forfiles. FORFILES S M C cmd c echo fsize. FORFILES M txt C cmd c if isdirFALSE notepad. Combining these examples and writing to a file yields the answer almost forfiles s c cmd c if isdirFALSE echo path fsize Forfiles. Out. txt. Note that the path is in quotes in the output. Does not matter whether echo on or echo off is toggled. Adding a blank line separating each directory would be a trivial extension of the IF. Caution Using the mask m will not return files without extension like last file in example Aside This writes a file in each directory with contents of just that directory forfiles s c cmd c if isdirFALSE echo path fsize Forfiles.
