Copy/Move to Location (13) RELATIVE OPTION

Postby jrisc » Wed Apr 09, 2025 9:14 pm

Hi, new user

I have folders that contain hundreds of <folder1>\<folder2>\[filename] entries. Often <folder2> has just a single file in it so what I would like to do is use Append Folder Name (9) to change to <folder1>\[folder2 filename] BUT at the same time move the file UP one level.
Just entering ..\ as the 'Copy/Move' location ended up putting the file in c:\Program Files (one level up from where BRU is installed) instead of 1 level up from the original filename (as intended)

If it was just for <folder1> this could be hard-set path, but I have hundreds of folders going multiple levels deep - and the initial goal is to remove just the deepest level of folders.

Obviously, if the field supported relative paths, you I could see use-case scenarios for ..\..\ etc.
