Got three DVDs back from scanmyphoto.com of prints from whenever upthrough about 2004, when I started using digital cameras.
The pictures are consecutively named, 00000001.jpg, 0000002.jpg, and so on.
I'd included file cards with dates and descriptions for groups of pictures, and these got scanned in with the bundles of pictures.
So now, 'View thumbnails' in file explorer, look at the note card, select all from notecard up to next notecard, use your utility to name and 'folder' those jpgs.
Later, Picasa to view, publish, whatever, already have it for all the digitals since 2005.

Yes, that's the MD5 checksum.
I checked again on that PC, and your files (both of them) show up a total of ten times on the Webroot 'quarantine' for my laptop. I've notified Webroot that they're throwing a false positive, even when I have it turned off (?).

Meanwhile, I loaded Files2Folder to my Win 7 64-bit, (run w/ Admin permissions) and it works great there. So I'm going to move all the photos there and do the work on that PC.

Thanks for the fast attention.
I'll drop something in the bucket.

I can't get this to work on my Win XP box at home.
Ran a version I got from cnet, it put the entry in the right-click menu, but nothing happens. Tried to install it again, my Webroot tells me it's infected, so I stopped.
When I got to work, I looked around for info on the app, found your site (http://skwire.dcmemb...e/files-2-folder.php). Downloaded the app from your site to the office Win XP here at work. Your app works exactly as advertised. Here.

So I copied the extracted Files2Folder.exe from my work PC to my home PC, tried to run it. Nothing. Even used a cmd prompt to try to run the -u unregister. No matter what, "Access is denied".

I can't 'unregister' the one at home either, either with the -u or with your 'Unregister' version. Extracting the exe from the zip either fails silently, or fails with interesting errors: (Winzip) "Error writing to c:\temp\download\Unregister_F2F_Shell_extension.exe. Possible cause: disk full or system limits exceeded."
More Detail? it asks. Sure.
Extracting to "C:\Temp\downloads\"
Use Path: no   Overlay Files: yes
Extracting Unregister_F2F_Shell_Extension.exe
Error writing to C:\Temp\downloads\Unregister_F2F_Shell_Extension.exe.  Possible cause: disk full or system limits exceeded
*** Unable to set the file's timestamp(2/16/2012  1:44 AM)

warning (2): could not set file attributes

And if I try to execute it from within Winzip, I get  the same error, but pointing at location
Extracting to "C:\Documents and Settings\(my name)\Local Settings\Temp\"

I've got full admin on the box in question, it's a solid box, up and running several years, mostly does background media processing now, and I found your app because I need to 'folder' over 6000 jpgs into their relevant days / events groupings. EXACTLY what I need, if only I can get it to work. (PS: Scanmyphotos.com might want to license this app.)

I've still got the entry in the right-click menu, does nothing, and can't get it to go away. Tried with and without Webroot on, no diff.

Any help? Not to be crass, but I'll put up some bucks for this working.
Thanks
