+ | * List files of certain type or based on extension\\ For example to list all jpeg files in the current folder, we can run the below command.<code>dir *.jpeg</code>To list all excel files<code>dir *.xls</code>We can even specify multiple extension in ''dir'' command to list files of any of the types.

+ | * For example, to list read-only files in the current directory, the command is:<code>dir /A:R</code> | ||
+ | * Similarly to display hidden files<code>dir /A:H</code> | ||
+ | * For the opposite case of looking for files where an attribute is not set, we can append '-' to the attribute code. For example, to print the file names without archive attribute set, we can use the below command.<code>dir /A:-A</code> | ||
+ | * Exclude Read-only files from the listing.<code>dir /A:-R</code> | ||
+ | * Exclude hidden files from listing.<code>dir /A:-H</code> | ||
