File Bucket1.1.0 Build 1

Moving files from one location to another might seem like an easy task, but it can end up taking a lot of your time if you need to handle a large amount of files. Luckily, this can be done with a lot less effort and time if using applications like File Bucket, which let you create list of files first, and then decide what action to take.

Visual design and portability perks

You don’t even need to install the application on your computer for it to properly function, which means you can carry it with you on a USB flash drive to use on other computers as well. Another perk of portability is that the PC you use it on doesn’t get affected in any way, especially because the registry system is not accessed or modified.On the visual side of things, the application is decently structured, with multiple navigation panes, each to further expand the previously selected item. The first step is to select the drive, which can also be an external one. Then, all containing folders show up in a different panel, which you can select and directly add to the list, or open up to pick just a few files.

Select files from different locations and pick action

The core function of File Bucket is to enable the creation of a list with files of any kind and from any location, and then decide whether to move, copy, or delete them. There are many file selection options, with the possibility to apply filters for file extensions, but there’s no support for dragging them over the main window.Before you can initiate the process, you need to specify a destination folder for the action you want to perform. The action is selected from a corresponding drop-down menu, with options to copy, move, delete, create shortcuts, or simply to save the list with absolute or relative paths. Later on, you can import existing lists under CSV or TXT formats.

A few last words

To sum it up, File Bucket is a lightweight file management application that comes in handy for batch manipulation of files of all kinds. The general structure lets anyone quickly accommodate, with multiple navigation panels for easy selection, as well as a decent set of actions to choose from.
