wuauclt > Folder_Check_Results.csv

SET count=1

FOR /f “tokens=*” %%a in (Folders_to_Check.txt) DO (

Dir %%a /a:r-d /b >nul 2>nul && ECHO %%a >> Folder_Check_Results.csv
Dir %%a /a:r-d /b >> Folder_Check_Results.csv

SET /a count+=1

)

When the batch file is run it reads from “Folders_to_Check.txt” which is just text file you create with the names of all the folders you want to check.
