Source: structure with subfolders [users can add or remove folders]
Destination: one flat folder

Is it possible ?

Is there any processing on files possible ? [removing or replacing spaces with something else]

Thank you.

Hi, flat folder is not possible. The issue would be what if files have duplicate name? Changing of file names is not possible, what type of processing would you like? thanks

If there are duplicate names, have option to overwrite or use windows copy logic [Copy but keep both files, Filename (2).pdf]

Would like to be able to have, ideally, some kind of RegEx options or just the ability to removes spaces.

Thank you.

I have used a combination of batch file and VV to sync files in subfolders to one single folder.

Code:
rem to make sure TempDir is empty
rd /s /q "TempDir"
md "TempDir"
cd "Patht_to_SourceTopLevelDir"
for /r %%d in (*.*) do xcopy "%%d" "TempDir" /D /I /E /Y
ViceVersa.exe VV.fsf /autocompare


This ensures that only files removed, changed or new in SourceDirs are updated in TargetDir.
Of course a condition is that no duplicate filenames exist in SourceDirs, else they are overwritten.
