Create a python script that sorts files on the desktop into separate folders based on their file type. The script should prompt the user for the source and destination paths, and then guide the user through the process of setting up the file types dictionary and running the sorting code.
Sure, here's an example Python script that sorts files on the desktop into separate folders based on their file type:
```python
import os
import shutil

# Prompt the user for the source and destination paths
source_path = input(Enter the source path: )
destination_path = input(Enter the destination path: )

# Define a dictionary of file types and their corresponding folder names
file_types = {
    .txt: Text Files,
    .docx: Word Documents,
    .jpg: JPEG Images,
    .pdf: PDF Documents
}

# Create the destination folders
for folder_name in file_types.values():
    folder_path = os.path.join(destination_path, folder_name)
    os.makedirs(folder_path, exist_ok=True)

# Loop through the files in the source directory
for file_name in os.listdir(source_path):
    file_path = os.path.join(source_path, file_name)
    if os.path.isfile(file_path):
        # Get the file extension and corresponding folder name
        file_extension = os.path.splitext(file_name)[1].lower()
        if file_extension in file_types:
            folder_name = file_types[file_extension]
            # Move the file to the corresponding destination folder
            destination_folder = os.path.join(destination_path, folder_name)
            shutil.move(file_path, destination_folder)
            print(fMoved {file_name} to {destination_folder})
```

To use this script, simply copy and paste the code into a new Python file and save it. Then, run the file in a Python interpreter and follow the prompts to enter the source and destination paths. The script will create the destination folders (if they don't already exist) and then sort the files in the source directory into the appropriate folders based on their file type.

Note that the file types dictionary in the script is just an example - you can customize this to include any file types that you want to sort. Additionally, you can modify the folder names and destination path to fit your specific needs.
How to customize it to any file types I want? Can you provide me the code for that too since I am not very good at using python. Also just to be sure, it wont mess up the sorting process right? I don't want two different file types in the same folder
No worries! We all have to start somewhere! So modifying the file types dictionary won't mess up the sorting process, as long as you make sure to include the correct file extension and corresponding folder name. The python script uses the file extension to determine which folder to move the file to, so as long as each file type has a unique file extension and a corresponding folder name in the dictionary, the sorting process will work as you want it to. It will not put two different file types in the same folder as long as you've provided the correct dictionary key-value pairs.

You must modify the file_types dictionary in the Python script to alter the file types that the script sorts into different folders. This is an example of how it's done:

1. Launch a text editor or the Python IDE and open the Python script.

2. Look in the script for the file_types dictionary, which looks like this:

```
file_types = {
    .txt: Text Files,
    .docx: Word Documents,
    .jpg: JPEG Images,
    .pdf: PDF Documents
}
```

This dictionary contains the file types that the script sorts into separate folders. The keys of the dictionary are the file extensions, and the values are the corresponding folder names.

1. To add a new file type, add a new key-value pair to the dictionary. For example, to add a folder for PNG images, you can add the following line to the dictionary:

```
.png: PNG Images,
```


1. To remove a file type, simply delete the corresponding key-value pair from the dictionary.

2. Once you've modified the file_types dictionary, save the Python script.

And that's it! Does this solve your problem?
