Split folder contents into subfolders containing 200 items per folder
Hi. I'm a musician and I've run into a slight problem that may be solvable via windows 10. This morning I booted up my copy of Ableton Live and opened up a copy of Remidi 2 as a VST plugin. This probably seems irrelevant but I'm just putting things into context. I loaded up some midi files and off I went. However, I went to a directory containing midi files and Ableton live locked up. After several hours of faffing around I worked out that Remidi 2 was struggling to cope with the 169 thousand plus files in the directory that I was using. So I spent an hour or 2 breaking the files into folders 0 to 10 and a to Z thinking this may sort it. However, as some of the folders still contain 5000+ files Remidi is still struggling to read them so I was wondering if there was a way in Windows 10 to batch create a number of folders and move say 200 to 250 files to each subfolder. I did a lot of googling hoping I could find some form of software to do this and then it occurred to me that this may be possible in windows 10 somehow. Any ideas?
I'm using windows 10 home version 10.0.19042 Build 19042
