I'm looking to organize my files and folders and was wondering if there was a software that fits some of these criterion:
- Scans specified folders, and pulls them up so that I can easily identify what the file is
- Ability to "categorize" each file, or large amounts of files at a time and then sorts those files into folders titled as their category
- Possibly have "sub categories" that will then further sort those files into subfolders
- Ability to 'mass edit' file names and even metafile data
- Duplicate file detection
Most of the files that I will be working with are document files (.docx, .pptx, .pdf, etc,.) but I also want the ability to work with any filetype. Is there such a software, or combinations of software that takes care of this?
Lol. I love how it's my meta post that is referenced in how to ask questions of this type. – James Mertz – 2015-01-19T14:41:46.180
Windows, presumably? – paradroid – 2011-04-14T15:15:30.380
@paranoid for me yes... but was hoping that there might be a cross platform solution. – James Mertz – 2011-04-14T15:18:52.153
1I wonder if there is some kind of "smart folders" (like in many email applications) but for the file system. – Nifle – 2011-04-14T16:55:25.790
@Nifle for "smart" folders belveder and hazel appear to be the best solutions, which is part of what I'm looking for, but also want to be able to "manage" files as well – James Mertz – 2011-04-14T17:19:54.160
