Hi,
How can I only import files that are in a subfolder with the same name? I have a main folder X. There are several folders in this folder, for example A, B, C etc. In each of these folders is a subfolder xyz. This folder is always called xyz. X\Test\Test1\xyz X\Test\Test2\xyz X\Test\Test3\xyz With the import method "Add the files in the folders" I can only specify a filemask. How can I now ensure that only the files in the subfolder xyz are imported? |

Hi Paul, Why not just use the file explorer (or equivalent if you are not using windows) to aggregate the directories, then drag them to aren? Locate the focus of file explorer on directory \x, then just use the find function to find all "xyz", then drag only the directories. Or do I not understand the question? Best, DF |

Not quite. I have now filtered the files in another file explorer and then added them to Advanced Renamer using drag-and-drop. Actually, I wanted to do everything (filtering) directly in Advanced Renamer. |

Sorry, Paul, I can't visualize a way to do that. The "Add" menu item doesn't seem to like it. Again, outside Aren there are lots of ways to create a .csv file: in the cmd window, or a batch file, or power shell, or pretty much any program/script language, but... I just tried arenc command line renamer and couldn't get that to work either, it just told me it couldn't find a path with a wildcard. But I'd never used it before so I could have messed up. Good luck, maybe Kim or some other smart person can answer. :) Best, DF |

Reply to #3: I don´t think that you can do that kind of filtering directly in ARen.
You can use the Windows Explorer. Go to X:\Test and search xyz. Select all the results click right and select "Add to Advanced Renamer" . Select "Add the files in Folders". If you can´t see "Add to Advanced Renames" option go to Settings - Environment and check "Explorer context menu". I hope this help you. Miguel Edit: Opps. I just saw that Delta answered the question. Sorry |
