contextmenu addon feature (alike LevelZap)

[Pbx01]

Goodevening 

I am using LevelZap (contextmenu addon) and it works fine. Sadly it does work on 1 folder at a time,not able to recursively on all subfolders.
https://archive.codeplex.com/?p=levelzap

Example: I have several font files sorted 1 or more font files in 1 matching dir. All are sorted by (sub) categories and sorted by (sub) alfabet. All have different names. I need to get all files from all subfolders into the main folder.
D:\Fonts\misc\categories\alfabet\    > D:\Fonts\

There are many small programs/coding snacks on this site so maybe there has been something already that could do the job but I couldn't find it. Otherwise I could use some help. 

/cheers



edit: Just after I made this post I got a suggestion from a friend: Use Total Commander > search > search for TTF ; when found > feed to listbox > select all > move to 'dir'
My humble request for a coding snack for this can be ignored.

Nice site you have ,will stay around and try to learn something and maybe I have another question later.
best regards

Welcome Ron.

I use https://www.lopesoft.com/index.php/en/download/filemenu-tools

Some times in the past this program came with adaware , but I am using for years since xp.
Perhaps the spanish option "empaquetar a carpeta" is what you are looking for.
= pack to folder
Best Regards

I was going to request a program which does exactly what is described here - ie move the contents of a folder to the next higher level folder, and then delete the now empty folder they were previous in - but unfortunately LevelZap seems to have been abandoned several years ago, and does not have an exe file any more on the site suggested above (that I can find). All googled links for LevelZap ultimately lead back to that one site. And whilst there is a "download archive" link there, that zip file contains sourceCode and other such mysterious files, which are complete gobbledygook to me! So, my question is, is there any chance of getting a similar sort of program created? Alternatively, how do I get those LevelZap code files to work as a program within Windows 10 (64-bit)?
Thanks.

Still slammed at work (up until 4 AM last night ) but I've downloaded it and will put it in my queue to evaluate if no one gets to it first.

What an effort...

XYplorer: Right click the folder, from the context menu: "Flatten folder", done...

I have done some more modifications to suit my purpose, which was to rename the files to include the folder path it had.
i.e.

root
a
  1
b
  1
  2

would become

root
a-1
b-1
b-2

here's the code for it
FlattenWithFolderNames.ahk

Code

fileselectfolder,MyFold,::{20d04fe0-3aea-1069-a2d8-08002b30309d}
SetWorkingDir, %MyFold%
loop, *.*,0,1
{
	parentpath := RegExReplace(A_LoopFileDir,"\\","-")
	;StringReplace, parentpath, A_LoopFileDir, \,-,All
	newname = %parentpath%-%A_LoopFileName%
	;msgbox %newname%
	If a_loopfiledir <>
		filemove, %a_loopfilefullpath%,%newname%
}

loop, %myfold%\*.*,2,1
	fileremovedir, %a_loopfilefullpath%,1
		
exitapp

Where the OP has (my emphasis):

...Example: I have several font files sorted 1 or more font files in 1 matching dir. All are sorted by (sub) categories and sorted by (sub) alfabet. All have different names. I need to get all files from all subfolders into the main folder.
D:\Fonts\misc\categories\alfabet\    > D:\Fonts\  ...

I could be wrong, of course, but I'm having difficulty seeing a driving need for this obsolete Windows File Explorer single-function add-on to continue, given that it has been superseded by the ability to flatten folders to one's heart's desire in modern Windows File Explorer alternatives - e,g. xplorer² (which I have used for ages), or XYplorer (as @highend01 suggests) - i.e., the problem has kinda "gone away".
I suppose the presumption here is based on my experience that, for years, probably no-one needing more complex file management would necessarily be able to rely on using Windows File Explorer for it anyway.

Thank you so much for pointing me to 'Flatten Folder Menu'.

It does exactly what I have needed all this time (without the convoluted faff and clunkiness of some of the alternatives  ). 
much appreciated

Really useful program.  A must-have.

One thing you have to give credit to Windows systems for is the fact they do support legacy programs for a long time (even decades! )
