Move mp3 files without the top folders

Post by JeffRush1 »

Hi, I've re-named all my files as "Artist - Title.mp3"
How do I move only the MP3 files to a new folder without all of the top folders.
so I just want all of the MP3 files to appear in a single root folder like:

f:\Music\new\
then within that new folder all of the songs in one single folder..

example:
artist1 - title1.mp3
artist2 - title2.mp3
artist3 - title3.mp3

Thanks.

Go to the restructure panel
On the right pane/options/directory structure remove all entries
make sure you have 'use script' unchecked
In the 'proccess' select N/A Only

set the root folder to the desired location

You can test the above settings by selecting 'create shortcuts'

Hi, thanks for the rapid response. I tried what you suggested. Nothing happened.

I tried both "Move" and "Copy"

Not sure what else to try. Any suggestions would be great.

Is the treeview populated with files?

It appears to be working now. ??? Not sure what I did differently.
Maybe last time I tried it, the machine had been on for 3 days straight without a reboot.
