[Abhishek14 (Abhishek Kommera)]

Can any one help me how get count of number of files and folders present in a main folder and also the count of files inside sub folders along with name of subfolder

@Abhishek14

Use Directory.GetFiles(“FolderPath”).Count

gives you the output of the count of all files on the specific folder

But My Main Folder contains Sub Folders and individual Files…
and each sub folders inside main folder contains files…
1)It should count the no. of items in the main folder
2) It should check weather the first item is folder or file if its a folder it should click and count the items in subfolder.
3)it should come back and do it for all sub folders

You can also use a In-built Snippet for this

I want to find all the folders inside a folder

Is there any way to get all the folder names inside a folder?

Get Specific File Data from Folders,Subfolders

I am trying to extract data from file/s which contains a specific word “MemberRef” These files are present in subfolders of main folder like \user1\Documents\2016\Jan\MemberRef12.xlsx \user1\Documents\2016\Feb\MemberRef21.xlsx \user1\Documents\2016\Jun\MemberRef22.xlsx etc Is there a way where I can search a specific string “Member Ref” in a directory "\user1\Documents\2016" and search the root folders to get the list of all file names and extract data?

Thanks,
Prankur

yes some what but it should iterate through the main folder and do it for all the sub folders in main folder
(in your case it is D:\samplek)

IN my case SampleK is my root folder which is having 1 file and one sub folder having name Sample Folder which also contains 3 files and New Folder folder contains 2 files.

Yes suppose your root folder contains 5 folders and 10 files…
my question is how to iterate through all the 5 folders and give the count of each sub folder.
root contains (Folder 1,Folder 2, Folder 3,Folder 4, Folder 5, and File 1,File 2, File 3…File 10)
it should detect Folder and perform the actions accordingly and if its a file it should skip that item…

My Output Should contain count of
Root—5 Folders and 10 Files
Root/Folder 1---- 2 Folders and 10 Files
Root/Folder 2----
Root/Folder 3----
Root/Folder 4—
Root/Folder 5—

Hi @kirti.iyer,

Can you please help me understand what do the syntax within the bracket mean?

Directory.GetDirectories(“test”, “", SearchOption.AllDirectories).Count()
Here I understand “test” is folder name
"” is search pattern - meaning read all file types?
SearchOption.AllDirectories - Read sub folders too.

Please help me understand how this code works.
