Frequently asked questions
- Does Disk Tamer move files on my computer or upload them?
- Files are moved locally via the browser's File System Access API. Nothing is uploaded to any server.
- Can I move files to a folder outside the originally selected folder tree?
- Yes. You can pick any accessible folder as the destination, including one outside the source tree.
- What happens if a file with the same name already exists at the destination?
- Disk Tamer warns you about conflicts before running. You can adjust your selection or destination to avoid overwrites.
- Can I move files from multiple source folders at once?
- You select one source root folder and apply rules within it. Moving from multiple separate source roots in one operation is not currently supported.
- Is there an undo option?
- There is no automatic undo. If you need to reverse a move, you can use the same tool to move the files back.
- Can I move folders, or only files?
- Currently Disk Tamer targets individual files. Folder-level moves are not yet supported.
- Which browsers support Disk Tamer?
- Chrome 86+, Edge 86+, and Opera 72+. The File System Access API is not available in Firefox or Safari.
