SummaryTo process files on the computer, a suitable file classification and organization method is first needed to achieve fast file search speeds, minimize the number of directory levels opened, and reduce the number of times files are flipped through. If multiple files have related content and their names have already been distinguished by the first character, but they are mixed with other files in multiple folders, how can they all be separated and saved into newly created folders based on the first character?


1、Usage Scenarios

Categorize and summarize files using the first character in the file names, including numbers, letters, text, symbols, etc., and save them in newly created folders named after the first character.

For example: !Excle.xlsx, 1 Excel.xlsx, Test Excle.xlsx files

They need to be categorized by the first character.

After categorization is complete, they will be saved into newly created folders named !, 1, and T.
