Recursive CMD or BAT Windows Script

Question

How can I create a BAT or CMD which will iterate through a folder tree and run same command agaists each folder file?

E.g

myexe.exe C:\Documents and Settings\folder1\filename.txt
myexe.exe C:\Documents and Settings\folder2\filename.txt

Notes:

• The filename is the same on each folder found.
• The folder names will be all different.

Your help is very appreciated or any hints of where to start.

Answer 1

Adapt this batch file to your needs:

@echo off
cd "\program files"
for /f "usebackq delims=|" %%a in (`dir filename.txt /s/b`) do (
        echo %%a
        myexe "%%a"
)

make sure to wrap the variable in double quotes in case the file name has spaces in it.

Answer 2

A PowerShell approach:

Get-ChildItem -Recurse . FILENAME.TXT | foreach {
    $_
    & myexe $_
}
