Question

I have a index.php file. In my root folder, there are approximately 200 folders. I want to add index.php file to all 200 folder. Instead of copy-paste, is there a quick way to add it?

Well, like all the other people have already said, there is probably something wrong in your design. If you want to make sure people can’t access it, just use Apache to do that, not PHP. If you still feel the need to add an index.php file to every single directory, here’s how:

<?php
$content = 'Your content';

$files = glob( './*' );
foreach( $files as $file ) {
    if( is_dir( $file ) && is_writable( $file ) ) {
        file_put_contents( $file . '/index.php', $content );
    }
}
