How to Generate File of a determinate Size in Windows?

How is the Best and fastest way to do it?

From stackoverflow
  • I found this Page, I try it and work great.

    To create One File use

    fsutil file createnew filename filesize
    

    To create a lote of Files use

    or /L %i in (1,1,25000) do fsutil file createnew A%i.tmp 12288
    

    will create 25,000 files of 12288 bytes (12KB) named A1.tmp, A2.tmp, A3,tmp…

  • PowerShell:

    $f = new-object System.IO.FileStream c:\temp\test.dat, Create, ReadWrite
    $f.SetLength(42MB)
    $f.Close()
    

    This will create a file c:\temp\test.dat that consists of 42MB of nullbytes. You can of course just give byte count instead as well. (42MB = 42 * 1048576 for PowerShell)

  • c:>fsutil file createnew /? Usage : fsutil file createnew Eg : fsutil file createnew C:\testfile.txt 1000
