Summary：When archiving various files, there are many files mixed with Chinese and English, and it is necessary to distinguish between Chinese characters and English letters for easier management and quick file search. If there are many files with Chinese names and American names in the same folder, how can you classify these name files using the first Chinese character or English letter that appears? Below is an introduction on how to distinguish a large number of files based on the first Chinese character or letter in the file name and place them into newly created folders accordingly.
