sometimes I like to have a list of files from a computer or hierarchy, is
there a way to save the list that you see on the screen other that PRTSC
function
 
There are third party utilities that will print from
Explorer or you can open a command window and use a command
tree/f>filename.txt to direct the results of a command to a
file, which you can open, edit and print.

Hi Bob,

1. Using a little utility called ExpPrint you can print a list
of file names in a folder. After installing ExpPrint, select all
files and right click on them, then pick "Print Directory Listing".
Check "Print to text file" to create a text file and pick a location.

2. How to Create a File List at a Command Prompt.
The below line of text will create a list of all the files in the
Windows folder to .txt file named "Windowslist.txt located
in the root of C:.

dir c:\windows\*.* /A > C:\windowslist.txt
