What is the Windows equivalent of the Linux command ‘touch’?

#2

Hey @gautam75, touch command is used to create a file without any content. The file created using touch command is empty. This command can be used when the user doesn’t have data to store at the time of file creation. In case of windows there is no direct equivalent of touch command. But you can do the similar tasks using other commands in Windows.

So like you can use echo command like this to create an empty file :

echo .> your_file.txt
