How to list all folder with size via batch file
For each folder in the list, use dir command to retrieve the size of the files under the folder
@echo off setlocal disabledelayedexpansion set "folder=%~1" if not defined folder set "folder=%cd%" for /d %%a in ("%folder%\*") do ( set "size=0" for /f "tokens=3,5" %%b in ('dir /-c /a /w /s "%%~fa\*" 2^>nul ^| findstr /b /c:" "') do if "%%~c"=="" set "size=%%~b" setlocal enabledelayedexpansion echo(%%~nxa # !size! endlocal ) endlocalIt iterates over the indicated folder (passed as parameter to the batch file, or current directory if there is no paramter).
For each folder inside it (for /d) a recursive dir command is executed inside the inner for command, and from its output, the summary line at the end (extracted by findstr) is parsed (the tokens in for command) and the total size of all the files under this subfolder is retrieved. Then the name (and extension if it has) of the folder and the size of the elements under it is echoed to console.
If a file needs to be created, redirect the output of the batch to a file
getSizes.cmd "c:\temp" > C:\folderList.txt
Using MC ND's excellent code, I've added conversion to Kb, Mb, Gb, etc. Just in case you'd rather have it in those formats.

I took @Matt Williamsons code and made it export each line to a .csv file in the run directory, folderSizes.csv. It provides the full Byte size as a column so that you can easily sort in excel (or whatever).
