List only files of a particular extension with the DIR command

Question

On Windows, we can see directory content using the DIR command.

I want to know, how can one see the list of only those files which have particular extension, e.g I want to see list of all .txt files, what command I should run?

Answer 1

Dir supports wildcards, so:

dir *.txt

Answer 2

You can list only the filenames without the extra information added with the command
dir /b *.[extension].

A more comprehensive list can be found here .

Answer 3

dir /S *.txt 

will show files with ".txt" suffix in specified directory and all sub-directories.
