Windows only: Keep your desktop or any other folder on your hard drive
organized and under control with Belvedere, an automated Windows file
management tool. Use Belvedere's friendly interface to create advanced
rules to move, copy, delete, rename, or open files based on their name,
extension, size, creation date, and more.
How It Works
Setting up rules with Belvedere is as simple as adding folders, then
creating to run on each folder using Belvedere's simple point-and-click
interface.
Just name your rule with the Description field and build your conditions with the drop-down menus.
