Hi Bob<= /div>

Welcome to the li= st. i am very surprised that nothing on Win 10 pro will open the MD files. = You don't even get a dialogue box asking which app you want to open the fil= es with? Here's one way you might do what you want.
There is NotePad++ which can be found at= :  
https://notepad-plus-plus.org

I think you will first need to install a LaTeX dis= tribution before you can convert to PDF. Sorry distribution may not be the = correct word but just cannot think of a better one at the moment. MicTEX is= apparently a good choice for Windows and can be found at:  
https://miktex.org

I do not know a= nything about creating a batch file in Windows, but you could install  = ;GNUMake  which has a Windows version. I think it only works in 32-bit= mode though:
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/m= ake.htm

After= installing GNUMake, you could create a 'makefile' in the directory where y= our MD files are and try creating the following file.
=
test.pdf: <filename>.md <file= name>.md etc
pandoc -s -o test.pdf  <filename>.m= d <filename>.md etc
You will need to= tab once before writing the pandoc command, for some reason MAKE doesn't l= ike spaces. I am not a mAKE expert and there may be a better way of accomplishing thi= s.

Once you've wr= itten and saved your makefile go back to Windows Explorer  and open a = Windows Powershell session or Command prompt session from the File menu. (T= his will open either at the folder you are currently in).

Type the path to GNUMake, it mig= ht be something like:  
C:\Users\Bob\Program File= s\GNUMake\bin\make.exe

Type a space and then the word 'make'. This should hopefully build yo= ur PDF file, merging all of the MD files into one PDF.

HTH

Would prefer an OpenSource applicatio= n.
