Folder Monitor is a simple Windows application that monitors a folder for files matching a specific wildcard every 5 seconds, then copies moves those files to another folder. Configuration is found in the INI file of the same name.
The INI file should be in the same location as the binary and should have the following entries:
- SourceFolder - The name of the folder to monitor.
- DestinationFolder - The name of the folder where files should be moved or copied to.
- Wildcard - The type of files to act on.
- Overwrite - Whether to overwrite target files or stop executing if not.
- Debug - Whether to show a summary console window.
- Log - Log activity in the foldermonitor.log file.
- ExitOnError - Exit the application if an error occurs.
- WaitTime - The amount of ms to wait between checks.
Run the startup.bat file to add this app to Windows startup.
