    How to Create a File List at a Command Prompt

    1. Click Start, point to Programs, and then click MS-DOS Prompt (or Command Prompt in Windows NT).
    2. At a command prompt, locate the drive that contains the folder whose contents you want to list. For example, if you want to create a text file that contains a list of the contents of a folder on drive C, type the following command at a command prompt, and then press ENTER:
      c:
    3. At a command prompt, locate the folder whose contents you want to list. For example, if you want to create a text file that contains a list of the contents in the Windows folder on drive C, type the following commands at a command prompt, and press ENTER after you type each command:
      cd\
      cd windows
    4. Type the following command at a command prompt, and then press ENTER, where filename is the name of the text file that you are creating:
      dir > filename.txt

      For example, if you want to create a file named Windowsfolderlist.txt, type the following command at a command prompt, and then press ENTER:

      dir > windowsfolderlist.txt

      NOTE: The text file that you create is located in the folder that you are in when you follow these steps. In the earlier example, the Windowsfolderlist.txt file is located in the Windows folder.

    5. Use a text editor, such as Notepad, to view or print this file.

    Try other commands like:

    dir source /s >> destination.txt

    e.g. dir c:\ /s >> “c:\users\<username>\desktop\list.txt”

    Or tree /A /F > tree.txt

    Successful-Unsuccessful-Infographic-700x823

    There are two types of people: successful people and unsuccessful people. There are distinct actions people who are successful take that probably keep their counterparts from achieving.

    Successful people often do not hold grudges and they do not allow themselves to get distracted by short term enjoyment. An unsuccessful person will spend a lot of time doing things that are extremely unproductive like going out more than they should or binge watching a TV show. Successful people keep their minds stimulated through engaging in new topics and ideas.

    Successful people realize that they are only successful because of the network, big or small, that they have created a long the way. Some unsuccessful people rarely pay respect to those who helped them during their life. Successful people often know how to persevere and strive for more while unsuccessful people do not set goals and they do not keep organized  like they claim to.

    Successful people build up the world around them. They compliment and encourage others. Those that don’t seldom have much to show; they can often criticize and portray themselves in negatives away.

    While these two types of people lead their lives in two greatly different ways, they do have something in common; they try. Being successful or unsuccessful does not define you. As long as you keep going in whatever you do, you’ll achieve more than you could have the day before.

    Go on – Be Successful!
