python setup.pyYour downloads, tamed.
Mouzi is a silent, elegant file organizer that lives in your system tray and keeps your Downloads folder (and any other folder) automatically tidy. It runs quietly in the background, monitors selected folders, and moves, renames, or sorts files based on customizable rules.
- Runs 24/7 in the background with minimal resource usage (~5 MB RAM)
- Automatically organizes new files as they arrive
- Shows a subtle Windows toast notification with the count of organized files
- Silent autostart with Windows
- Images (
.jpg,.png,.gif,.webp...) โDownloads/Images/ - Documents (
.pdf,.docx,.xlsx...) โDownloads/Documents/ - Archives (
.zip,.rar,.7z...) โDownloads/Archives/ - Installers (
.exe,.msi...) โDownloads/Installers/ - Music / Video โ dedicated folders
- Catch-all rule for everything else
- Create your own rules with extensions, regex patterns, and destination folders
- Use dynamic placeholders in paths:
{year},{month},{day},{extension},{filename} - Reorder rules by priority - first match wins
- Per-folder ignore patterns โ like
.gitignorefor your files - Set up via Settings UI or write a
.mouziignorefile manually - Supports wildcards (
*.tmp), exact names (.DS_Store), and folders (node_modules/)
- Every action is logged locally in SQLite
- Undo any single move with one click
- Clear history anytime
Auto-detects your Windows system language. Supported:
- ๐ฌ๐ง English
- ๐ต๐ฑ Polish
- ๐ฎ๐น Italian
- ๐ฉ๐ช German
- ๐ซ๐ท French
- ๐ท๐บ Russian
- ๐ฏ๐ต Japanese
(Falls back to English if system language is not supported)
- Follows system theme, or force Light / Dark mode from settings
- 100% offline - zero cloud, zero file name uploads
- No telemetry by default
- System files ignored -
desktop.ini,Thumbs.db,.DS_Store, and other OS hidden files are never touched - Portable version available - run without installing, leaves no trace in the registry
- All data stored locally in your user profile folder
