Summary：When managing a large number of files with mixed naming (e.g., 1B_Employee_Records, 2A_Budget_Overview, 10C_Product_Roadmap), manual classification is both tedious and error-prone. At this point, you only need to automatically create A - Z folders based on the first English letter appearing in the file name and classify them accordingly, easily achieving efficient organization. This method intelligently skips numbers and symbols, accurately identifying the first English letter, making it suitable for organizing financial reports, client information, photo collections, and other quick retrieval scenarios. Whether it's for administrative office, financial management, or personal file organization, this automated classification method can save a lot of time.
