When adding new folders in the settings, the new paths are not visible. The default download path on drive C always remains.

    The default rules had absolute destinations hardcoded to the Downloads folder (e.g. C:\Users\...\Downloads\Images). This caused files from any watched folder to always be moved to Downloads instead of being sorted locally.

    Changes:

    • Default rules now use relative destinations (Images, Documents, Archives...)
    • execute_rule resolves relative destinations against the source folder where the file appeared
    • Added automatic database migration on startup: existing absolute rule paths are converted to relative on first launch
    • Files dropped into C:\TEST with the "Images" rule now correctly go to C:\TEST\Images

    Thanks for the report!
