Desktop Sorter

Desktop Sorter is a straightforward piece of software that gives you the possibility to organize files into different directories by type. It contains intuitive options that can be easily tackled by all types of users.

The setup procedure is a fast and easy task that shouldn't give you any trouble. The only notable factor is that you must have .NET Framework installed, since it was built with the help of this platform.

Regarding the interface, Desktop Sorter has a simple window that lists all options put at your disposal, thus enabling you to get an overview and quickly dive into the configuration.

You can get started by selecting a folder whose containing files you want to sort, along with a destination for the new items. When it come to the sorting criteria, it can takes into account applications, game maps, torrents, archives, media, disk images, scripts, images, and documents.

It's possible to exclude any of these categories from the task. Unfortunately, the tool doesn't implement options for adding new groups, nor for selecting specific files from the source directory.

It didn't put a strain on the machine's performance in our tests, running on a low amount of CPU and RAM. No error dialogs popped up and it didn't hang or crash. Tasks were carried out swiftly.

On the other hand, Desktop Sorter comes equipped with a light set of options and doesn't leave much room for customization, making it less appealing to advanced users looking for enhanced flexibility toward file sorting. For example, it doesn't give you the possibility to preview the sorted files, nor to undo your actions if you change your mind. Nevertheless, you can test it for yourself.
