This program provides a simple way to move massive amounts of files from one directory to another directory without having to manually go into your directories and move each file one by one. With PythonFileMover all you have to do is open up your command line and run our simple commands to move your files around on your computer with ease. You can move massive amounts of files
Move massive amounts of files, either by extension(i.e. .txt ) or folder(i.e. WorkFiles) from one directory(I.E. C:/) to another directory (I.E. D:/) with only a few lines. Save yourself time from having to constantly copy and paste the files and get back to doing more important things!
- Move files from Directory A to Directory B with only a few commands.
- Move entire folders from Directory A to Directory B.
Interactive Mode: Please download the code from our Github then launch the program using 'python main.py'. You will then be lead to our very intuitive interactive mode! From the interactive mode you can do the following:
- ✨ Move large amounts of folders from Directory A to Directory B:
--move-files - ✨ Move large amounts of files from Directory A to Directory B:
--move-folders
At the moment the only way to run this program is through downloading the script and running python main.py.
The program currently must be build in order to run it. In addition, it is currently only tested for Windows PCs
- Step 1: Install Python 3+
- Step 2: Ensure you have the following dependencies installed(: os, shutil, typer, time, tkinter)
- Step 2: Download the recent release from Github.
- Step 3: Open a command line or powershell as an administrator on your Windows PC.
- Step 4: Navigate to the directory where the source code is stored and run
python main.py. You will then open the interactive mode and be able to run the codes specified!
