EDIT: changed

strings are in listfile.txt and the c:\source needs to be set.

Code: Select all

@echo off
set "dest=c:\destination"
for /f "delims=" %%a in ('dir  "c:\source" /a:-d /o:n /b') do (
 for /f "delims=" %%b in (listfile.txt) do (
   if exist "%%a" if /i not "%%a"=="listfile.txt" if /i not "%%~nxa"=="%~nx0" find /i "%%b" < "%%a" >nul && (
         echo moving "%%a"
         md "%dest%\%%b" 2>nul
        move "%%a" "%dest%\%%b"
      )
  )
)
pause
