Need help with basic problem

[mlondon]

Hi,
For some reason I cant get the simplest of rules to work.
I want to monitor a folder and its subfolders for the "Backup" files which MS Word creates and move them to another folder.
- I selected a folder which contains subfolders.
- I created a rule with "Name contains Backup" and setting of "If any of the following are met"
- For "Do the following" I set it to "Run rules on folder contents" AND Move to a folder "Backups" (which is in a different folder from the original.
- When I click Preview, it says "Rule does not match" but THERE IS A FILE IN THE FOLDER WHOSE NAME CONTAINS "BACKUP" !!!
- When I run rules from below the Folder pane, nothing happens.

Debug below.
It says "2017-06-12 07:27:05.360 hazelworker[9602] DEBUG: In Progress with MRL: Did not match any rules."
But I checked again and there ARE files whose name contains "Backup"

What am I doing wrong?
Thank you,
Matthew

[Mr_Noodle]

Search the help for "subfolders". It explains in more detail what you need to do. The way you have it now, you are combining logic for two different things (folders and files) into one rule, which won't work.

Got it!
Needed two rules. Duh...
Working now, thank you.
