Thank you both for trying to help me.
It is truly appreciated!

The thing is that I want to have :
- foldernames, sizes, dates, paths
- of subfolders only (not files)
- that are on multiple partitions/drives

so, like

X:\basefolder\subfolder1
                     \subfolder2
                     \subfolder3

Y:\basefolder\subfolder-a
                     \subfolder-b
                     \subfolder-c

Z:\basefolder\subfolder-001
                     \subfolder-001
                     \subfolder-001

Using Directory Opus resulting into excel sheet like this:

List all subfolders on multiple drives to text of csv

Regretfully, Directory Opus folderprint, sofar, does not accept multiple folders.

Sorry, I don't understand.
The worked example using xplorer² that I gave indicates that you set up and save a folder search as described - in your case, one each for:
   X:\basefolder
   Y:\basefolder
   Z:\basefolder

The repetitive task then boils down to:

* 1. Double-click each of the saved search files (3 of them) and wait for the search to complete and display results.
* 2. Select All, Copy to Clipboard the selected search results for each (3 copy operations).
* 3. Paste the search results into spreadsheet (3 paste operations).
You could automate this further.

Would that not provide you with the desired result?

FileLocator Pro can handle this task. Maybe also the freeware version FileLocator Lite (aka Agent Ransack).

I tried putting "directory listing csv" into DuckDuckGo and found quite a lot of relevant postings.  One that might suit you is List Maker (I haven't tried it).  But I think that whatever application you use, you will have to run it multiple times to cover multiple drives.  That's why I'd suggest a command line tool, because then you can put it into a batch file to run it as many times as you want with however many drives you have.

@ rjbull, FileLocator Pro can in fact handle multiple drives in a single pass
