Greetings Everyone,
I had an issue with moving multiples files with extension (or picture kind) from folder which contains multiple subfolders to a single folder.

Can anyone help me how to do it properly. With trying multiple rules it always copy also structure of monitored folders and I need only files in a single folder.

Your image isn't coming through but read up on subfolders in the manual. Also note when moving, there are options on whether you want to copy the folder structure over as well.

Copy folder structure in unchecked. But still it's not working.

Ok, so the problem is that you have the conditions set to "any" up top. The second condition will match any folder that has an image somewhere under it. That will end up copying that whole folder.

Again, please read the chapter on subfolders in the manual.
