OrdinaPS, a Windows Powershell script

It sorts all your files each in a folder named as its extension. For example, it moves all jpg files in jpg folder. Files without extension remain in the main folder.

You can use it as a simple PowerShell script. Alternatively you can integrate it on Windows ontext menu:

Move OrdinaPS.ps1 in a script folder
Set an Enviroment Variable named "Scripts" (a googled tutorial here)
Open Add-to-context-menu.reg file
Customize the config file if you want custom folder names

Enjoy!

Config

There are a configuration file called ordinaps.ini. You can customize behavior of OrdinaPS. In blacklist section you can choose specific file type that script should ignore. Every extension should be separate by a comma ,

In Custom folder name sections you can choose a name for specific file type. Yuo can also use same folder name for differente extension.

Blacklist example

blacklist=ini,ps1,zip

It move all file except ini files, ps1 and zip files.

Custom folder name example

pptx=Presentations
ppt=Presentations
docx=Word Docs

In this case, every docx files will go in a folder called "Word Docs" instead the basic "docx" folder. Furthermore, pptx and ppt files will go in the same "Presentations" folder.
