    You can get a list of all files in subdirectories with this command

    dir "yourfilename.ext" /s /b
    

    If you want to know is how many times your file “yourfilename.ext” is present then you could extend the previous command with

    dir "yourfilename.ext" /s /b | find /C "yourfilename.ext"
