After research, It seems to be a new topic
When we extract compressed files, Sometimes, this creates folders which only contain a subfolder with the same name,
which then contain the files I'm looking for. After times, sometimes, it even goes a few layers deep
think matryoshka/russian dolls
MyProg.zip --> c:\MyProg\MyProg\MyProg\...\MyFiles,zzz
I'm looking for a way to either find/identify these folders
so that I can bring the files back to the original folder,
or something that would do this process for me.
Thank you for your genious collaboration

First thing I would look at is your (un)zip program.
(If you're using Windows built-in, I have clue about that.)
Anyhow, any decent unzip program would allow you to either:
e : Extract files from archive (without using directory names)
or
x : eXtract files with full paths
One method, all the files go into a single directory (which might or might not work out depending on whether there could be duplicated names).
The other, the directory structure is recreated.
---
What I would do with the files, & Everything, is to search for them .
So if they are within C:\MyProg, start there.
And if you only want the picture files therein, set the pic: filter.
Now that you've found them, do what you want with them (drag into \russian dolls\, or whatever).
