Common Issues
Command Not Found
Verify installation:
foldr --help
Ensure Python scripts are available in PATH.
Files Were Not Moved
Check:
- ignore rules
- file extensions
- category configuration
Watch Mode Does Not Trigger
Confirm that the watcher process is still running. Watch mode does not automatically restart after a machine reboot.
Verify active watchers:
foldr watches
Check the watcher log under ~/.foldr/watch_logs/ on Linux and macOS, or %USERPROFILE%\.foldr\watch_logs\ on Windows.
Undo Did Not Restore a File
The file may have changed since the original operation.
FOLDR skips files when restoring them could overwrite later changes. This is intentional protection. Duplicate-removal operations cannot be undone.
