将子文件夹中的文件夹/文件递归移动到其父文件夹

Question

I have a high level folder (call it 'level 0'), which contains a hundred or so subfolders ('level 1'), and within those subfolders consist of lower level subfolders and files ('level 2'). I need to dynamically move every file and folder from 'level 2' to its level 1 subfolder (or relatively speaking - its parent).

To better visualize:

Master folder
├ Parent folder 1
│ ├─ Subfolder A
│ │  ├─ File A
│ │  └─ File B
│ ├─ Subfolder B
│ │  ├─ File C
│ │  └─ File D
│ ├─ File E
│ └─ File F
.
. ... many folders more ...
.
└─ Parent folder 134
   ├─ Subfolder CS
   │  ├─ File AGF
   │  └─ File ARH
   ├─ File ROQ
   └─ File JGL

I need to move everything from any subfolders' content within its parent folder. As above, you can see that there may be some files already in the parent folder (eg Files E, F) and they should stay put.

Objective:

Master folder
├─ Parent folder 1
│  ├─ File A
│  ├─ File B
│  ├─ File C
│  ├─ File D
│  ├─ File E
│  └─ File F
├─ Parent folder 119
│  ├─ File AZA
│  ├─ File AZB
│  ├─ File AZC
│  └─ File AZD
... and so on

The challenge here is that there are over a hundred of these parent folders beneath the master folder and all have different names. The subfolders within the parent folders also have different names as well.

I've tried approaching this using Get-ChildItem then with a 'ForEach' attempting to assign the child item (ie folder) as a variable and then performing another Get-ChildItem recursive and moving all content to the parent, but I'm getting nowhere and if any movement, it seems to be referring back to C:\\Windows\\ folder.

Note [sorry, correction Not*] literal code, but the approach, I'm thinking of:

$master = "\\data\Master"
gci $master | foreach {
    $parent = $_
    gci ... | Move-Item -Destination $parent
}

Answer 1

I did try to make something for you. This will move everything from level2 folder to the level1 folder. Pls try it, and let me know how its working.

$master = "C:\Temp\Level0\"
Get-ChildItem $master | ForEach-Object {
    $dest = ($_.fullname)+"\"
    $Loc = (Get-ChildItem $_.FullName | Select-Object -ExpandProperty fullname)+"\*"
    Move-item -Path $Loc -Destination $dest
}

Answer 2

This should do what you want. It will however not move any files with the same filename to the parent folder if the filename has already been used.

$FilePath = Read-Host "Enter FilePath"
$FileSource = Get-ChildItem -Path $FilePath -Directory

foreach ($Directory in $FileSource)
{
    $Files = Get-ChildItem -Path $Directory -File

    foreach ($File in $Files){
        Move-item -Path $File.Fullname -Destination $FilePath
    }
}

Hope that is of some use.
