    I've loads of files in loads of folders several layers deep. Is there a fast way of putting them all into one folder.

    Try using Windows' Search (Find Files).

    Do a search for *.* in the main folder. This will bring up a list of all the files in that folder, and all the subdirectories.

    Just drag a box around all the results, and drag them into a new folder.

    It should work, I only remember doing that once before though.

    Agreed...that should do it.
