Hello again Pareidol! Are they always the same files/directories?

Yes, atm. But I can not say how my workflows might change in the future. Best would be (as far as I can imagine) if it would be possible to call a program from a batch and put source and destination path as argument in it.

I have recurring tasks of moving and copying files from one path to another.
I would like to have a desktop shortcut (maybe even put it in the Windows task planner), where you just double click and the files are getting moved/copied.
I know, this can be done with a batch and robocopy, but i would like to have a progressbar and propper errorhandling.
Something like TeraCopy (there are many more programms that can copy/move files), but with the ability to call it from a file/batch/link, whatever.

Great,
now it works as expected.
I'll defenitely work with it the next time.
Maybe there are some minor improvements, but for now I'm happy.

Many thanks.

Ok,
maybe then I still get your suggested workflow not right.

My need for this tool:
- I often have to use an accounting tool for different projects
- The projects often change
- The projects have cryptic names
- When I need to enter something for one of the projects, I want to open the list with the projects "ah ok, this time it's the project with the red t-shirt" select the "red t-shirt project" and in my accounting programm the cryptic name will be entered.

Might be a bit complicated or not as easy as i imagine.
Could be a workarround if there is nothing else, but I'm looking forward for publicdomains release ;)
