FileBoss

Copying Files to one Folder

 

The Utility Factory (makers of FileBoss) bought several graphic collections to use as a basis for the toolbar buttons.

But one set was supplied where each button type was in its own folder based on file format, size and then use.

In order to make selecting the graphics much easier we used FileBoss to search for all the desired graphics (creating a File Set) and then coping all of them to one folder.

 

First
Create a File Set if Needed

 

If all the files you want to back up are in a single folder display that folder in an Explore View and go straight to Select the Files to be Copied.

Otherwise create a File Set containing all of the folders that the files are in. Click here to see how to create a File Set.

Remember that you can save File Set definitions for later use making it easy and quick to repeat this operation another time.

 

Select the Files to Copy

 

Use any of FileBoss' simple or advanced selection methods to pick the files you want to copy. From simply using the menu command Select | All to selecting by almost any criteria you can think of FileBoss will make this step really easy.
