What the File Organizer Does and Why It Matters
The File Organizer sorts the files you select into folders by type, date, or size and packages the result as a downloadable ZIP, all in your browser. You hand it a pile of files and it returns a tidy, foldered archive.
This matters because download folders and shared drives tend to become disorganized dumping grounds. Automatically grouping files — images together, documents together, or by month — restores structure without dragging files around one at a time.

Choose how to group them: by file type, by date, or by size.

Does it change my existing folders?
No. It builds a new organized ZIP for you to download, so your original files and folders are left as they are.
Are my files uploaded?

Frequently Asked Questions
Is my file data kept private?
Absolutely. All organization happens entirely in your browser. No file data is sent to any server. Files are only processed locally to create the organized ZIP.
Are my original files modified?
No, this tool cannot modify files on your system. It reads your selected files and creates a new organized ZIP file for download. Your originals remain untouched.
What are the file type categories?
Files are grouped into common categories: Images (jpg, png, gif), Documents (pdf, doc, txt), Videos (mp4, avi), Audio (mp3, wav), Archives (zip, rar), and Others.
How does size-based organization work?
Files are categorized as: Small (< 1MB), Medium (1-100MB), Large (100MB-1GB), and Very Large (> 1GB).
Is there a file limit?
There is no strict limit, but very large numbers of files or very large total size may cause browser performance issues. The tool works best with hundreds of files or less.
