Hello

I have posted this questions on another place, like Discord, an a user propose this powershell script. I share with you.
This is a feature not often necessary but usefull when needed. The reverse possibility is also needed sometime.

Sorry for the french below.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sous window, va dans ton dossier ou ce trouve ceux dans des dossiers et non, fait shift + clic droit dans le vide et choisi l'option ouvrir une fenêtre powershell.

ensuite copie ce script dans powershell et fait enter (n'oublie pas les deux accolade fermante en fin de script:

Get-ChildItem -File | ForEach-Object {
    $folderName = [System.IO.Path]::GetFileNameWithoutExtension($_.Name)
    if (!(Test-Path $folderName)) {
        New-Item -ItemType Directory -Name $folderName | Out-Null
        Move-Item $_.FullName $folderName
    }
}

Tous tes fichiers qui ne seront pas déjà dans un dossier le seront (à leurs noms respectifs), ceux qui le sont déjà ne seront pas changé.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


EDIT:
Don't work for all because sometime caracters not handled on the filename with this script:

Move-Item : Impossible de récupérer les paramètres dynamiques pour l'applet de commande. Le modèle de caractères
génériques spécifié n’est pas valide :
Les.Nus.et.les.Morts.(The.Naked.and.the.Dead).1958.BRRiP.720p.x264.AC3.[Repack.Jean.Jacques}.mkv

That is a very special use case.. There is no built in ready to go feature like that.

But you should be able to create a UserDefinedCommand of MultiScript type to do that.
The hard part is to figure out what that the folder name should be. If the folder name can be generated from what the filename is.. then it is easier.

From MultiScript you can get all selected files
Go through them one by one and from file name create the Directory name you want,.
Create that folder and then move the file to that folder..

Then you assign that command to a HotKey/Button/Menu and when you select that command it will run that on all selected files.

Hello

I have HDDs with lots of movies files, some of them are inside drawer (some hundred) and some of them without (files directly clickable).

I would like to know if it's possible allready in MultiCommander.

- Select a movie file.
- Use a Multicommander feature that:
- Create a drawer with the name of the movie.
- Put the movie on the drawer

And the best is to do that with one click for hundreds movies.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks, I see that I can change the font for the free-space but the icons to the right of them are still miniature and do not change at all.   I don't use the Windows Scaling function as that screws up a lot of windows apps so you cannot get to some things, especially if they are at the bottom like Save or other buttons down there. Please ignore the squiggles as Undo doesn't seem to exist in snip.. -Bill

I don't know what "commander panel" is.
There is no extra extension in MC that is called that.

MC do not have a full folder compare and sync feature yet..
It has so it can compare two folders. and select what is different based on some rules. it does not compare subitems in folders. only what is shown in the two panels with each other
Menu > Edit > "Compare Folders , Advanced..."

Support and Feedback / Commander Panel
« Last post by sbankscharles on January 04, 2026, 05:57:50 »
I wanted to do folder compare between two computers and tried to use Multi Commander.  Long story short, I discovered that you can only do this in commander panel.  Then I discovered that I do not have that extension in my version.  Then I discovered the correct setup file is not on the download page, even for previous versions.

Is there any way to get the correct version to run commander panel?

Thanks

MC will scale with Windows scale settings.. Unless you turn that off and if you want  everything bigger.. scaling with Windows Scaling is often a better chooice

The font for the Freespace field is changed is changed in Explorer Panel Settings. the icons should scale automatically

I found the way to change the 5 fonts under Fonts in Explorer panel settings so my old eyes can now read that stuff.  BRAVO guys!  But I am not sure how to change those fonts/sizes at the top of the Multi Commander window.  I am trying out your program due to having the change all text sizes in windows to get the default file explorer readable for me, which screws up the fonts everywhere else. 

Am I missing the settings to change those or are they not available in the program? 

Thanks, Bill

The area's highlighted in Yellow are what I am referring to.. 

UPDATED   Found the Icon Size in Core Settings..   Still cannot find how to make those others bigger yet.  I reattached the new screenshot with the larger icons now.

It cant delete the folder if it failed to delete some files before under it.
So there must be some error before where it failed to delete some sub files..  Windows does not allow delete of a folder if it is not empty.. so if it failed to delete some files under it. it will also fail to delete the folder.

OR something protects it or permission prevents it or something else that are special with that folder

Thanks Mathias... I've started as administrator, but the File operations log simply tells me:
2025-12-23 12:07:00.982 Failed to delete folder (163) : XXXXXXXX
2025-12-23 12:07:00.982 Handle file Operations error : 163 (0) - Can not delete directory. It is not empty.

I'm not using any particular security software...
