Sort files by file size using command line.
A simple one liner command to sort file by size.
Command line below will sort from smallest file size capacity to the file with biggest size capacity.
dir *.txt | sort /+20 >d:\txtsort.txt
dir *.pdf | sort /+20 >d:\pdfsort.txt
dir *.doc | sort /+20 >d:\docsort.txt
dir *.avi | sort /+20 >d:\avisort.txt
dir *.mp3 | sort /+20 >d:\mp3sort.txt
dir *.mp4 | sort /+20 >d:\mp4sort.txt
Get all files and sort it by size
dir *.* | sort /+20 >d:\SortAllFiles.txt
PowerShell can also achieve this result but a simple command line can do the job.
It can be written on a batch script and run the batch file against a shared folder.
To sort files by date using command line, use this command below:
