Windows 7 – How to Sort Folders and Files Together

sortingwindows 7

Is there a way to sort folders and files by their name all mixed together in Windows 7?

It would be easier to understand if you look at this page.

I want my folders and files arranged like the BEFORE situation of the first screenshot.

If there is no way to do that with Windows Explorer, is there any file management programs that I should try?

I've already tried Total Commander.

Apparently there is no way to do this in Windows Explorer that I can see, other than having the folders first. One third-party program that lets you mix files/folders is Xplorer2: http://www.zabkat.com/x2lite.htm

Windows 7 – Find all files that are alone in a folder

@echo off
Setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion

SET ROOT_FOLDER=C:\TEST 1
SET TARGET_FOLDER=C:\TEST 2

FOR /D %%G IN ("%ROOT_FOLDER%"\*) do (
CD %%G
    FOR /f %%A in ('dir ^| find "File(s)"') do (
        set cnt=%%A
        Echo %%G  : !cnt!
        IF !cnt! == 1 (
            move /-y "*.*" "%TARGET_FOLDER%"
        )
    )
)

This Batch will look inside C:\TEST 1 sub folders an count files. once it finds a lonely file it'll move it to C:\TEST 2. it will also ask for overwrite in case file name already exist.

Replace C:\TEST 1 and C:\TEST 2 with your own values.

you can add pause at end of the batch to read the files count echo'ed by it.
