How to automatically copy/move files?

Question

Windows

Greetings!
We need a program (on Win7) that itself will move and copy (marked) files from one folder to another according to the given rules (by name, by size, etc.).
For example: audio files that are in the "Downloads" folder should be moved (namely moved) to the specified folder on another drive (D :), and photos from the same folder should also be moved to the specified folder on another drive and at the same time "copied" to the "Cloud " folder. I will be grateful.

Answer 1

There are many such programs, only they are often paid. Here's a couple:
Two of the most functional, both with obscene prices:

www.watchdirectory.net
There's a free option here, but it only works for one folder; for actions, you will have to set a command or write bat files, and there are no copy / move options in the program:

There is a free version, but, judging by the offsite, it cannot run scripts in the background

This one seems to be completely free (for actions you will have to set a command or write bat files, there are no copy / move options in the program):venussoftcorporation.blogspot.ru/2010/05/thefolder...

Answer 2

Absolutely free PowerShell can monitor the contents of a folder. You can take the script
as a basis , prescribe the necessary paths, and insert a switch like

$a=Get-Item ($folder+"\/"+$name)
switch ($a.Extension)
{
'.mp3' {Write-Host "AudioFile"; Copy-Item $a.FullName -Destination d:\test\Audio}
'.txt' {Write-Host "TextFile"; Copy-Item $a.FullName -Destination d:\test\Text}
'.bat' {Write-Host "batchfile"}
}

Answer 3

Absolutely free, supports a whole bunch of conditions, filters and exclusions, can produce RealtimeSync and much more - www.softforfree.com/videos/freefilesync-31602.html

Answer 4

Isn't it easier to set sorting / filtering by format / type and do everything manually?

Personally, I sometimes use the Robocopy program
