;let's build an array of subfolders

$aFolder = _GetFileList("C:\", '/S')

For $i = 1 to Ubound($aFolder)-1
    ConsoleWrite($aFolder[$i] & @LF)
Next

Func _GetFileList($s_Folder, $s_Switch = '')
;---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
;$psSwitch can be the following kinds of things:
;   /AD     list folders only
;   /A-D       list files only
;   /S /AD   list all folders and subfolders recursively
;   /A-D /OE   list only files, and group them by extension
;
; <<< parameters to the DIR command >>>
;
;   /A        Displays files with specified attributes.
;   attributes   D  Directories             R  Read-only files
;                H  Hidden files               A  Files ready for archiving
;                S  System files               -  Prefix meaning not
;   /O        List by files in sorted order.
;   sortorder   N  By name (alphabetic)    S  By size (smallest first)
;                E  By extension (alphabetic)  D  By date & time (earliest first)
;                G  Group directories first -  Prefix to reverse order
;   /T        Controls which time field displayed or used for sorting
;   timefield   C  Creation
;               A  Last Access
;               W  Last Written
;   /S        Displays files in specified directory and all subdirectories.
;   /X        This displays the short names generated for non-8dot3 file
;               names.  The format is that of /N with the short name inserted
;               before the long name. If no short name is present, blanks are
;               displayed in its place.
;---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    Local $s_r = ''
    Local $p_pid = Run(@COMSPEC & " /c DIR /B " & $s_Switch & ' "' & $s_Folder & '"', "", @SW_HIDE, 2)
    
    ProcessSetPriority($p_pid, 5)
    
    While Not @error
        $s_r &= StdoutRead($p_pid)
    WEnd
    
    Return StringSplit(StringTrimRight(StringReplace($s_r, @CRLF, @LF), 1),@LF)

EndFunc
