To create a text file that lists the contents of a folder and its subfolders, you can use the command line. On Windows, open Command Prompt and use the command dir "C:\path\to\folder" /s > output.txt
, replacing the path with your target folder. On macOS or Linux, use the Terminal and run ls -R /path/to/folder > output.txt
. This will generate a file named output.txt
containing the directory structure and contents.
To display the contents of a folder in the contents pane, open the file explorer or file management application on your computer. Navigate to the desired folder by clicking on it or using the address bar. The contents of the selected folder will then be displayed in the contents pane, showing all files and subfolders within that directory. You can also use shortcuts like double-clicking the folder to quickly view its contents.
