Filenames of a directory

[Circlenaut]

Is there a program out there that reads a directory and crawls through all sub directory and spits out a text file with all file names will maintaining the directory structure?

I have an entire directory that's corrupt and unrecoverable but all fine names are intact. I need to record the file names for future reference. There are thousands upon thousands of files in a 300GB space

If you're using a Windows OS you can make a batch file using DIR command or you can grab a freeware directory lister. Google returns a lot of results for either. Hope this helps.

why not use the cmd line tool tree /?

Karen's Directory Printer

No more fumbling with My Computer or Windows Explorer, wishing you could print information about all your files. Karen's Directory Printer can print the name of every file on a drive, along with the file's size, date and time of last modification, and attributes (Read-Only, Hidden, System and Archive)! And now, the list of files can be sorted by name, size, date created, date last modified, or date of last access.

I've used this in the past. You can print to a printer or save to a text file.

dir /s > yourtextfilename.txt
open a cmd and cd over to the target directory, run that.

Alternatively, you could use powershell:
gci *folderpath* -recurse | out-file *outputfile*
