    Copy certain multiple files from subfolders to single folder


    Hi everyone!
    I am looking for a way that I can copy DNG files from subfolders which also contain JPG, CR2 and XMP files all into one another folder. The CR2 and XMP will be wiped out with two DEL /S command, the JPG should stay where they are (they are the files to deliver to my clients), but the DNG should move into a single folder which i'm using for backup. I'm searching a way to do it without having to actually go into each subfolder and perform a drag and drop.

    The directory structure is always the same:


    mother dir
    |_0 to fix ------------- jobs done but still to fix
    | |____04 client4 (*.CR2, *.XMP, *.JPG and *.DNG files)
    | |____05 client5 (*.CR2, *.XMP, *.JPG and *.DNG files)

    |
    |___00 delivered ----- jobs that are fixed and delivered
    | |____01 client1 (only *.JPG files)
    | |____02 client2 (*.JPG files)
    |

    |_03 client3 ---------- job fixed but still not delivered (only *.JPG files)
    |

    |_working (only *.DNG files)


    i thought to do something like FOR /R %X in ("o to fix\*\*.DNG) DO COPY %X working but it doesn't work because it won't search into the subfolders for DNG files...
    Is there something i'm missing? can anyone please help?

    Thank you in advance!

    Marco.

    :)

    [Using Search] If you need to do this using GUI, do a search for all files (*.*) from the from the parent folder (and search all sub directories). From the search results, select all files, right-click and choose "Cut". Open the destination folder where
    you want to move all files to, right-click and choose Paste. But files that aren't indexed wouldn't be listed/copied... that's one thing
    you need to watch out for.

    Java.nio.file - Copying files

    You can't copy a folder, thats why it generates an exception (you are trying to copy a folder using a copy file function).
    You probably need to list all the files inside that folder and copy one by one
