There are approximately 50,000 jpg files in the folder.
I want to separate odd and even numbers among the files and move them to another folder.
So I want to search for odd numbers only within the folder, and I want to know how.
I don't know the computer very well, so I used the method in the help, etc., but it doesn't seem to work very well.
C:\Users\AP\Downloads\1\
If you only search, all files in the folder can be searched
C:\Users\AP\Downloads\1\ regex:1$
If you search for it, you can only search for folder 1
The files inside cannot be retrieved.
1\ If you name the file
File name 00001... The file name 50000 appears.
But if you do 1\file name regex:1$, nothing comes out.
And even if you search under certain conditions
At the same time that all files are retrieved
It is searched in a block-processed manner.
For example, when all three sets(00001, 00002, 00003) are searched, only 1,3 is blocked thickly, but I want to search in a way that excludes search 00002 at all.
I want to select only odd-numbered files within the folder.

Re: I want to select only odd-numbered files within the folder.
Could you please give an example full path and name.
Are you trying to match odd numbers in the parent folder name or the file name?
For example:
C:\Users\AP\Downloads\1\01234.jpg
For odd parent folder names, please try the following search:
C:\Users\AP\Downloads\ 1\ | 3\ | 5\ | 7\ | 9\
For odd file names, please try the following search:
C:\Users\AP\Downloads\ regex:\d\d\d\d[13579]
\d = match a single digit
[13579] = match an odd number
If file names are not using 5 digits, please try the following search:
C:\Users\AP\Downloads\ regex:[13579]\D
\D = match a character that is NOT a digit.

The problem has been solved through the method you told me.
The fundamental problem was dividing the file.
The use of [13579] was found on the web
\d\d\d\d was not found.
Thank you for solving the problem.
Oh, and I don't know why, but it didn't apply right away. I think there's also an index problem.
At first, I thought it was a name problem, so I changed the file and folder name only to a simple number, but when I change it to the original name again, I recognize it again.
