Drop every scattered folder

Pictures rarely live in one folder. Covers, details, campaigns. Version 1.3.0 on 29 September 2025 added “several folders in one batch” so you stop importing three times.

How to drop

1. Drop several folders on the main window, or use import directory. The walk is recursive. Subfolders are kept in the output when possible.
2. Formats outside the whitelist (RAW, for example) never enter the queue. The UI tells you how many were ignored.
3. Click Optimize. One failure does not stop the batch. Progress sits on the row. See Getting started.

Overwrite or save-as

1.0 had no such choice. Version 1.1.5 on 7 July 2024 added overwrite. 2.0 folded it into the plan (prefix, suffix, output folder, overwrite).

• Overwrite only when the source folder is disposable.
• Keep shooting originals in another output folder.
• For watch folders, do not point output back at the watched path. See The export folder runs itself.

Do not

• Do not drop an entire disk.
• Do not trial parameters in overwrite mode on the only original.
• Do not expect full-resolution pixels in the list. Rows use 72 px cached thumbs.

Next: Revert when the result is larger.
