Easy way to do this

echo "abcdef" > a.txt
echo "12345" >> a.txt

the a.txt content will be

"abcdef"
"12345"

Try creating a variable with the text first like as follows:

set /p txt=Your Text Content; 
echo %txt% > "Location\textfile.txt"

EDIT: If you are meaning that the newline doesnt appear all you have to do is the following:

echo "FirstLine" > "Location\textfile.txt"
echo. "SecondLine" > "Location\textfile.txt"

echo. instead of echo will start a new line.
