    How do I get all the items in a folder and its subfolders?


    I have a folder with about 35 subfolders in it, each containing some files. Is there a way to move every file at once, instead of going through each folder and selecting and moving all of them?

    Emails not sync in win10 outlook in subfolders through Rules

    Thank you for your suggestion.

    I've followed that step, but no go 4 me.

    The emails in the Inbox and Sent Items are synced well, but emails in the subfolders* not.

    *subfolders: in the Inbox, I create a folder which is used to receive emails following certain rules.

    Removing items from a lot of folders.

    Simple.

    How do I get all the items in a folder and its subfolders?

    Control panel folder with subfolder list, in start menu - old style


    Or...
    Have Control Panel reside in the 'Most used' list and populate the 'jump list' with the items you want.
