I download many files, usually 2 or 3 a day, often 10ish.
Some of them are duplicates because I just can't be bothered to find the original in my downloads folder.
I have previously tried DAP and used that to create a new subfolder for each day's download. yet I have found this insufficient as sometimes I wish to find files by name/file type or I have multiple parts of downloads over more than one day.
Another problem I have found is zips/rars/etc after downloading them and extracting them I then have the zip and the folder. I like it like on a Mac where it automatically extracts the zip after it has been downloaded and removes the zip.
What I'd like to be able to do is sort the downloads by date, but dynamically so they are just in the big downloads folder, but I can just press a button and it will show me all the files from a particular site, or from a particular day or by a certain file type.
Is there any software that will do this? I use Chrome as a browser but also have Firefox and like that.
