How to get it to work with File2Folder?

<< < (2/3) > >>

chumbolito:
Well...yes. If you read the other thread, didn't you see my reply to skwire? I said I was completely lost and incapable of using it. Same here but it just seemed a little bit more accessible, but maybe not.

tomos:
had a closer look,
you wanted:
Isn't it possible to batch process the basic task of File 2 Folder? i.e., I have 10 files name file 1.txt, file 2. text, file 3.txt,.... (one click batch process) and have them each go to folders named 'file 1', 'file 2', 'file 3', etc...
It would seem very useful when you want to run the basic File 2 Folder action but on multiple - and in my case hundreds! - files in one step?

from the Files 2 Folder help file:
4) If you have selected multiple files and choose 'Files 2 Folder' from the
   menu, a box will pop up with three options:
      1) [..]
      2) Move each file to individual subfolders based on their names e.g.:
          Good.bat   -> .\Good\Good.bat
          Better.txt -> .\Better\Better.txt

is that not what you wanted?
Okay, it's not one click, but it's two (I think) and that for as many files as you want...

skwire:
The only problem is that it will do it one file at a time!-chumbolito (February 16, 2018, 11:16 AM)

My Files 2 Folder application does work with multiple files.  What happens when you select multiple files and choose Files 2 Folder from the menu?

chumbolito:
Geez, I feel so embarrassed  :-[
It is working! But....I can promise you I must have attempted this at the time of posting (the OP is old) and something must have gone wrong because I was aware of that option in the menu!
In fact, it's odd that nobody mentioned this in my OP!? That should have been the starting point for troubleshooting a problem.

Oh well, all cleared, it's working, I'm happy!  :D
Thanks for your patience and guidance!

tomos:
^well I sent you on the wrong track by suggesting drag & drop robot.
(I had also misread your post and thought you wanted the folder name be different from file name... but all sorted now :up:)
