    How to copy multiple pdf files from different folders to other different folders


    I have thousands of .pdf files saves into 9 different folders.

    All files have common ending numbers like 1, 2, 3

    I want to move those all files to different 250 folders, which have also starting numbers like 1, 2, 3 and going on.

    How can I do this with minimum efforts ?

    :)

    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
