Rearrange files in Desktop with their extensions
We may have lot of files in desktop some times 20,40 and go on. Too many word doc, excel, Jpeg and screenshot, text files. we would have face a situation where we will be searing a file in desktop one by one. So thought of having a folder for each extension. This script will create a folder with extension name and move those files with respective folders.
Script:
$DesktopPath = [Environment]::GetFolderPath("Desktop")
$Dir = get-childitem $DesktopPath -file
$Dir | foreach-Object{
$extname= $_.extension
$Dname=$_.DirectoryName
$Fname=$_.FullName
$extFolder=$Dname+"\"+$extname
CreateFolder ($extFolder)
MoveFile ($Fname,$extFolder)
}
Function CreateFolder ($extFolder){
If(!(test-path $extFolder))
{
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path $extFolder
}
}
Function MoveFile ($source,$destination) {
Move-item -path $Fname -Destination $extFolder
}
Here is the output
Same script has been hosted in GitHub
