Counting the number of files with a given extension

Sometimes you just want to know the number of e.g. *.doc files in a given directory. This is easy and fast with with on-board tools of windows:

  • Start-Execute-CMD
  • dir /S | find /C “.doc”
  • Disks will churn a bit and the number of files will be printed.
