It is always frustrating to copy the files from multiple folders to a single folder manually, I ended up with a similar problem with my Google photos after I export them. In your case, it might be different, but if you have a problem like me, let’s keep watching to understand how to automate this task.

This might be a difficult ?. I have 5500 images in a folder and i want to make slideshows of them. I want to use 25 images per slideshow. I have a folder that has 220 folders in it named with song titles. I want to be able and type a command using a bat command or some other app that by clicking 1 time it takes 25 images and places them in each of the 220 folders, I dont care the order actually the more random the better. Is there a code that can do this for me. I was trying to do a move file command from source using count of 25 to destination folder and placing all 220 destination locations in it but I dont know if that will work or how to write it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
