Сортировка файлов по папкам в зависимости от расширения это конечно хорошо. Но если бы была сортировка по сайтам, откуда файл скачан, или по адресу загрузки, то было бы вообще шик. Тот же *.zip архив я могу скачать с совершенно разных сайтов и их нужно сортировать по разным папкам а не все в кучу

A great app easy to use.
1. Since some downloaded files should be sorted in other folders are often packed file(.zip/.rar etc.), they should be sorted later but with lesser effort, so I use windows sorting mechanism to help to pin unclassified and archive fold on top, when your download folder is set as "sort by - Name":
-folder name starts with "[" will be displayed on top of the rests;
-add a "_" will make it top among them.
2. And I use sub folders by adding "/" trying to make the sorted folders better sorted.
My folder arrangement based on windows system for your references, feel free to make it yours:
[_unclassified]
Unclassified
[_archive]
zip,7z,tar,gz,md5,rar,r00,r01,r02,r03,r04,r05,r06,r07,r08,r09,r10,r11,r12,r13,r14,r15,r16,r17,r18,r19,r20,r21,r22,r23,r24,r25,r26,r27,r28,r29
