I have thousands of folders like these:
12432434_afma_v01
12432434_afma_v02
12432434_afma_v03
12432435_afma_v01
12432435_afma_v02
12432435_afma_v03
I want to consolidate all their contents in two folders only (using as consolidating method the first 8 digits of the name):
12432434 (contains all content of the 3 merged folders)
12432435 (contains all content of the 3 merged folders)
Is this feasible?
Yes, this is not complicated to do with a simple script, but to write this kind of script you are better off on StackOverflow instead of SuperUser. – IronWilliamCash – 2016-11-22T16:43:22.413
1Also, you need to be prepared on how you will handle duplicate names for files or sub-folders. There is not any one size fits all answer to that. – bvaughn – 2016-11-22T16:51:59.240
