Need to Create 100's of Folders from a .txt file

[supasaiyan]

I have a text file with 100's of file names and I need to create a folder for each file.

Apart from creating manually 100's of folders and then renaming them, I was hoping (praying) someone could recommend software that could do this??

you could copy and paste the names into excel.
then concatenate the name of the folder to make
mkdir foldername
then turn it into a batch file and run it

test.txt:

test.txt
test1.txt
test2.txt
test3.txt

Command prompt:

for /f %a in (test.txt) do mkdir %~na

[breech]

batch files will do it , loop through the text file
search batch editing ini files (will provide closer results)
'directories' as well as 'folders'

things to watch out for:
illegal characters and folder names being too long.

heres a link that should get you started

Would Text 2 Folders do the job?

Powershell makes this pretty simple

Get-Content textFile.txt | % { mkdir $_ }

Or if you wanted to strip out the file extensions something like

Get-Content textFile.txt | % { mkdir $_.SubString(0,$_.LastIndexOf(".")) }
