DropIt provides a floating target image on your desktop that you can drag-and-drop files to quickly process them with a predefined action. Actions include: copy, compress, extract, rename, delete, split, join, encrypt, decrypt, open with, print, upload, send by mail, create gallery, create list, create playlist, create shortcut, copy to clipboard, change properties and ignore. A destination can be chosen for each association defined, as well as group associations in any number of profiles.
Users can create rules to filter files based on name, directory, size, date, properties, content or regular expressions. Existing files in destination folders can be defined to overwrite, skip, or rename them. It includes a multi-language interface, folder monitoring, shared folders support, SendTo and Command-Line support, environment variables support, automatic update and much more.

V4.0.1
Congrats. Dropit has a mention on lifehacker.

V2.6
As reported in the topic, simply use *Invoice*Apr* and *Invoice*May* as patterns..
V2.5
Possible to include AND function.
ex/
*Item1*;*Invoice*&*Apr*
*Item2*;*Invoice*&*May*
As of now Dropit "sees" both have *Invoice* and prompt user to select which file destination to move to.
V2.5
We will consider these two feature requests for future releases..
V2.0
I would like to be able to use two actions one after another. Actually I am looking for a way to auto decompress downloads and move the archives in some dump folder. Now it asks me what action to do.
Is it possible to implement a watch folder too?
V2.0
Nothing wrong with AutoIt.
now support multiple instances, v0.9!
anyone wanna reconsider doing this in something other than AutoIT?
Great little utility. I regularly have a lot of zip files I need to move to different locations. This is a real timesaver.
v5.3.2
