Hey everyone! I've been struggling for three days trying to get my AI application to work the way I need it to. I want to be able to select one or more files and move them into a new folder automatically, using the name of the first file (or the only file) as the folder name. I'm not very technical, so navigating PowerShell and setting up scripts is pretty new to me and takes time. The AI app I've been using has put me through multiple processes, but none have worked correctly. Often, it ends up creating a separate folder for each file. When it tries to fix that, it just doesn't work. I'd really appreciate any help you can offer!

You might just want to ditch the AI approach and write the scripts yourself. Do you know which programming language the AI is using for the scripts? That could help you figure things out better.
I get that you say it's "simple," but it might need a bit more explanation. Are you trying to automate this process every time you select files in Windows Explorer? Because that’s not a straightforward task. When you mention "using the name of," do you mean you want to rename the files or create a folder with the name of the first one? I suggest writing out exactly what you want in plain English. Maybe that will help clarify things for the AI or anyone here that's trying to assist you.
Thanks for your input! The AI did assist me in creating two files: Add_GroupIntoFolder.reg and GroupIntoFolder.ps1. Unfortunately, it still didn't work, and kept putting each file in its own folder. I’ve tried explaining my wants clearly to the AI, but it seems to create more problems when it tries to correct things. I don’t want full automation; I just need to select a few files, right-click, and have the option to group them into a new folder named after the first file. I appreciate it seems complex, but it feels like it should be doable.
