Capital P is now p, sorry but I made this site in 3 min and pictures in 2 min, sorry for mistake.



Thanks for advice but it cant be done like that ,because of many reasons , ctrl b is much closer solution and with ctrl b it gives me only 5h of work to sort all dir.

Some group of files have 3-5 nfos and I cant know what is the right one.

One example:

I have one group of dir with 1780 nfos named look.nfo, 2780 with name p.nfo, 25080 named file_id.diz , but those files are not same, each file has unique content, do you know how much time you need to throw, sorting this bunch of files and dirs, I dream about option, like I described.

What do you actually do with these infos in one dir. You will have to rename them, but which way you do?

Its one dir(example) with 2148 sub dirs inside, each of this 2148 dir has its own bunch of dirs, look at the examples on the pictures:

Now your problem is clear defined and one can begin and try to find a solution. I guess it will be possible, but it may took a few days ( for I'm just renovating my flat).

Be patient, please

Very weird solution :)
If you have some free space, you could pack all dirs to a temporary blahblah.zip with 0=none compression (Alt+F5), and then unpack (Alt+F9) this blahblah.zip to the required dir with 'Unpack path names...' UNCHECKED (this will place all the files in one place) and 'Overwrite existing files' CHECKED (this will ensure that only one copy of .nfo remain).
