First method  For Windows 7 and above users  Windows PowerShell give you this option  Users with windows version less than 7 can download PowerShell online and install it   Steps    type PowerShell in search area and click on  Windows PowerShell  If you have a  bat  batch  file go to step 3 OR copy your commands to a file and save it with  bat extension  e g  file bat  run the  bat file with following command  PS  location  gt   lt path to bat file gt  file bat   Tee-Object -file log txt   This will generate a log txt file with all command prompt output in it  Advantage is that you can also the output on command prompt   Second method  You can use file redirection         as suggest by Bali C above    I will recommend first method if you have lots of commands to run or a script to run  I will recommend last method if there is only few commands to run
