    Move Multiple Files to Multiple Folders Simultaneously


    Hello everyone! I have almost 900 PDFs that need to get moved from one folder to their own individual folders. I have about 200 folders with a set of PDFs in each to move. I found a way to rename them all with excel that was really helpful 2019- 386A- HAZCOM but right now I'm having to drag and drop each file to it's own respective folder. This is exhausting! Isn't there an excel cmd that I could set up to direct each 386A file to go to its own folder ? Thank you for any ideas!

    :)

    Unzip multiple files in same folder

    How can I unzip multiple files inside some folder in Windows 10?

    Only option available is to extract a file at once and with a popup window suggesting a folder with file name.

    Gathering Names Of Multiple Files

    Is it possible to get the names of multiple files and paste them in to Notepad or Word or something?

    Not sure how clear that is - I've got a folder with lots and lots of films from holidays etc. I've spent ages renaming them all to something meaningful (Other than Mov0001, Mov0002 etc etc)
    Unfortunatly, at the time, I didn't think to copy and paste the names in to a file as I did each one. But now people want to know what things I've got - so I want a list of all the names without having to type each one out seperately.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks
