Every Downloads folder eventually turns a junk drawer.
Duplicates. Screenshots. PDFs. ZIP files. Random installers.
Most file organizers either move everything blindly or force you into complicated rules.
FOLDR takes a different approach.
- Preview every operation before anything changes.
- Undo any organize operation.
- Never overwrite existing files.
- Watch folders continuously in the background.
- Keep your filesystem predictable.
Automation should save time, not create anxiety.
# Preview what would happen (nothing moves)
foldr ~/Downloads --preview
# Organize (shows preview, asks to confirm)
foldr ~/Downloads
# Undo the last operation
foldr undo
# Watch a folder — organize now and keep watching
foldr watch ~/DownloadsPaths with spaces must be quoted:
foldr "D:\My Downloads" --preview

- Preview by default — FOLDR shows you what it will do and asks before moving anything.
- Folders are never touched — only files are moved; directories stay where they are.
- Conflict-safe — if a file with the same name already exists at the destination, FOLDR renames the incoming file (
photo_(1).jpg, etc.) rather than overwriting. - Undo anything — every operation is reversible via
foldr undo. - Dedup is the only irreversible action — always use
--previewbefore--dedup.
