Find files of multiple extensions batch

I'm trying to search for files of multiple under a specific directory. I know that if I wish to search for all .exe files under C:\Test, I do the following:

set FoundFiles=dir /b /s C:\Test\*.exe

But, what I wish to search for all .exe and .txt files under C:\Test? Is it possible in the same way? I tried the following:

dir /b /s C:\Test\*.exe *.txt

It works in cmd, however, when I do this:

set FoundFiles=dir /b /s C:\Test\*.exe *.txt

It doesn't work.

Is it even possible?

Solution

  • This should work

    dir /b /s *.exe /s *.txt
