Displaying dirsize in batch file windows server 2012 R2

Question

I'm trying to display the dirsize with a batch file but so far no luck. DU, dirsize gives me a not recognized as an internal or external command error.

This is my batch file so far, it displays all the dir's but not the size.

dir D:\test\test2
PAUSE

Are there more commands to display dirsize?

Thanks

You're right, after some researches I found this command :

C:\Users\TEMP>dir "C:\Users\TEMP\Desktop" | find "(s)"
           1 fichier(s)            2'253 octets
           2 Rép(s)  18'042'929'152 octets libres

The problem here is that it goes deeper then the level required, I have test1/test2/test3, I only need the dirs in test 2. – Arne Banck Feb 27 '17 at 15:07
