Solved: Folders with pictures in them.

Hi, A while ago I put my pictures into folders. I now realize I don't like them in folders. How can I remove them from the folders they are in?

Hi, I'm not sure I understand you. All I want to do is keep the pictures just remove the folders they are in.

I'm not familiar with xxcopy. But what I would like is to get rid of all the folders not even have one left.

you can use this batch code

make a backup of files before executing

Code:

@echo off
set src=C:\test
pushd "%src%"
for /f "delims=" %%a in ('dir /b /s /a-d') do move "%%a" "%src%"
for /f "delims=" %%b in ('dir /b /s /ad') do rd /q /s "%%b"
popd

 

I'm really sorry but I'm really stupid here. Where do i put this code and what will it do. I can back up my files.

Is xxcopy a downloadable program?
chuck.

 

to backup the files copy the folder with pictures in another location

To use the batch code .. copy everything inside the code box.. open notepad . paste the code and save the file as "picren.bat" and double click on "picren.bat" to execute it.

you have to change the line in the code to reflect your folder
set src=C:\test

 

Thanks everyone. The problem was solved by opening every folder, copying the contents and pasting them back into my pictures then deleting all the folders. It worked.
