I need help organizing files Sun Jul 19, 2020 2:38 pm • by mrgreeneyes
hello,

so I would like to know if someone can help me create a rule.

I have a folder name completed downloads.
I would like a rule that takes all items that are movies and moves them out of the subfolder to another folder. and delete the subfolder that the movie was in.

is that possible?

Look up "subfolders" in the manual. That will show you how to have Hazel check subfolders. You would need another rule to do the actual move and also yet another to check that the folder is empty and remove it.
