Hello,
After a few days of searching the forums, I am now a member.
Q: I have multiple drives with many different paths that ALL need the same set of changes made. I have many preset favorites already setup. the problem comes when I load a favorite that has been saved from one drive/path and attempt to use it anywhere else. I load it and it takes me away from the directory and drive I am working and I have go search for the directory/drive again.
I have tried to exclude the path with path="", path=, etc but then the favorite will not load.
Simply said, I wish to use same favorites over multiple drive and folders with the favorite button without having to re find the working directory I was in.
Example:
Saved .bru =
"[General]
Path="h:\files\somefiles\"
[Regular Expressions]
Match=""
Replace=""
Include Extension=0
Simple=0
v2=0
[Filename]
Mode=0
Fixed=""
[Replacements]
Replace="[some garbage]"
With=""
~
When loading this .bru on say drive G: and directory \Newfiles , it fails to keep me in the working directory
of G:\Newfiles and tries to find the path from the .bru.
How can I with little regX experience and no programming experience solve this?
I enjoy the program for small things but with this lockdown nonsense have found time to archive and straighten up 20 years of data to new larger 6-8TB drives. It does a fine job but this has me stumped.
Appreciate the help!
