About QuickMove
Right-click a file and it goes where that kind of file belongs. QuickMove is a rules-based file mover for Windows. The first time it meets a new kind of file the Rule Wizard builds the rule with you, by name, extension or pattern (regular expressions included); after that the move happens without a prompt. Files that fit no rule get a list of your favourite folders. Every move is in a history with undo, multi-step included. Rules can be overridden or edited from the context menu, can route files into sub-folders by name, and can rename an existing file in the target folder out of the way instead of overwriting it. The optional Automation plugin (US$24.99) watches folders such as Downloads and applies your rules by itself. Works from the Windows 11 first-page context menu. One-off US$29.99 licence with free minor updates; free edition and a 7-day trial. Windows 7 SP1 to 11 and Windows Server 2012 R2 and above. Email support within 24 hours.

FileToFolder
Create a folder from a file, and put it back, from the right-click menu. Select one file or many in Windows Explorer, right-click and choose FileToFolder: each file gets a folder named after it and is moved inside. FolderToFile does the reverse: it pulls files out of their folders into the current one, from sub-folders too if you want, and deletes the empty folders it leaves behind. Dissolve moves a folder's contents up one level and removes the folder. It works from the Windows 11 first-page context menu with no "Show more options" step, and as a normal application with command-line options for scripts. One-off US$19.99 licence with free minor updates; free edition and a fully functional 7-day trial. Windows 7 SP1 to 11 and Windows Server 2012 R2 and above. Email support, answered within 24 hours. Made in Australia; current release 7.3, September 2026. Need rules-based moving as well? That is QuickMove, from the same people.

Folder Hub
Folder Hub functions similarly to a floating Finder and cleverly utilizes the notch on your Mac.
When you move your cursor to the notch area of your Mac, a window will pop up, floating above other windows, and you can use it almost the same way you use Finder.
You can drag files into your workspace.
You can double-click to folders.
You can right-click to open the menu and sort items.
You can drag and move files around.
However, unlike Finder, to use Folder Hub, you first need to create a workspace that contains the folders you frequently access, such as Desktop, Downloads, etc. Once your workspace is created, you can instantly access these folders in a floating window format.
Advantages of Folder Hub Over Finder:
Floating Window Accessibility: Folder Hub presents a floating window that’s always at your disposal. There's no need to move current windows around, expose the desktop, or drag files manually from the desktop.

ShareWatcher
Know who is using your Windows file shares, and be told the moment files arrive, change or disappear. It shows who is accessing your shares and alerts you when files are added, changed or deleted, by email, sound, Windows event log or a command of your choice. Live Folder Monitoring reports a change the moment it happens; polled monitoring covers FTP servers and finds files that arrived while ShareWatcher was not running. Cadence Watcher tells you when a folder that should be receiving files goes quiet. Actions run when a new file lands, including a QuickMove action that files it by rule. The Server licence adds Auditing (who created, changed or deleted a file) and runs ShareWatcher as a Windows service; Enterprise adds remote monitoring of other Windows computers. One-off licences, no subscription: Pro US$129, Server US$349, Enterprise US$749. Free 7-day trial. Windows 7 SP1 to 11 and Windows Server 2012 R2 and above. Email support within 24 hours.
