Re: printing list of CD contents?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

i tried this solution: > HOW TO Add a Print Directory Feature for Folders in
Windows XP > http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=321379
but i could not complete all the steps, specifically the editing of the
registry because i can't get to the registry editor (so I no longer can
display the folder list in windows explorer), so
how do you delete the printdir.bat file? when i go into Folder Options,
File Types, File Folder to delete the Print Directory Listing i created the
delete button is grayed out and i cannot click on it.

thanks for your help.

I have to think that this a a simple question, but then I'm a rather simple
person.


From the command prompt (Start > Run > Cmd.exe), simply change to
the desired directory and type "dir > filelist.txt" or "dir > lpt1,"
just as you used to do in DOS. Any of the switches for the DIR command
(type "dir /?") will work with this command, if you wish to modify the
output. You can then subsequently edit the resulting text file using
NotePad, WordPad, Word, etc.
