FileToFolder
FileToFolder provides easy, one-click folder creation from a file and moving that file into its new folder.
Need to do the opposite and rapidly move multiple files out of their folders into the current folder? FileToFolder will do that too with a simple “right-click” call from the context menu, while tidying up behind itself and deleting any empty folders and sub-folders if required.
Just want to shift all the contents of a folder “back one” (ie Dissolve the target folder)? “Right-click” on it and select “Dissolve”.
FileToFolder is at its most convenient when used from the context menu in Windows Explorer but it can be opened and used as a conventional application as well.

QuickMove
QuickMove is a rules based file mover that learns where to move your files to based on an initial decision from you. It will also offer a list of favourite target folders for those files that don’t fall into any strict category. How? Just right-click on a file and select QuickMove. If QuickMove has no matching rule from past actions then it will open the Rule Wizard and assist you with the creation of a rule before moving the file. The next time you select this type of file for a “quick move”, it will apply the rule without prompt.
Always cutting and pasting the same types of Files to the same Folders?
Always navigating deep Folder structures to archive the same types of Files?
Wish that you could just “right-click” on a File and see it automatically moved based on Rules learnt?
Wish you could just be prompted for a list of your favourite target Folders?
QuickMove has the Solution!
