🔢 Post ID: KPT-0001

Need to create a structured set of folders in Windows without any special software? Here's a lightweight .bat script that reads a text file and builds your folder tree instantly.

🎯 What This Script Does

  • Reads folder names from a folders.txt file
  • Creates folders and subfolders wherever you run the script
  • Requires no installation — works on all modern Windows PCs

🖱️ Just double-click the .bat file

🎉 Boom! Your folders appear like magic, already named just the way you want

🗃️ It's automation, the old-school way — fast, clean, and offline

📁 Example Input File (folders.txt)

I have planned my folder structure as below — a simple model of my native state India > Assam > Districts. Basically I want to create a folder "India" under which my State "Assam" and finally all my district-wise folders under the state "Assam":
