Here you go:
Path       = 'C:\Users\' % wherever you want to search
searchPath = [Path ,'\**\*.csv']; % Search in folder and subfolders for  *.csv
Files      = dir(searchPath); % Find all .csv files
% Save to text file
fid = fopen('C:\Users\FoundFiles.txt','wt'); % create file
formatSpec= '%s\n' % new Line after String
for i = 1:size(Files,1) % write each string in for-loop
  fprintf(fid,formatSpec, Files(i).name);
end
fclose(fid); % close file again
