File Tools widget for Windows

A widget for the jobs that make you dig through folders. Its front shows how full your drives are and what needs doing: old installers and unfinished downloads, a folder that grew 11 GB this week, what your tidy rules handled today. Each line opens the tool that deals with it. Behind that: duplicates found by content, look-alike photos, renaming by pattern, by photo date or by what a document says inside, sorting into folders, removing location and names from files before you share them, merging and splitting PDFs, zips and checksums. Nothing changes until you've seen the list and pressed the button, removed files go to the Recycle Bin, and every run can be undone. AI is optional and a local model keeps everything on your computer.
