This script could also be written using a .BATch file, but here it is as a .VBS script.

Save as move_to_folder.vbs

'FileWatcher script - move files to a new folder

Option Explicit

dim objArgs
dim fso
dim filename
dim folder

Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

'Set a reference to the arguments
Set objArgs = Wscript.Arguments


for each filename in objArgs

	If fso.FileExists( filename ) Then
		fso.MoveFile filename, "c:\destfolder\"
	End If

next

Set fso = Nothing
Set objArgs = Nothing

Command: C:\Windows\System32\wscript.exe
Parameters: <full path\>move_to_folder.vbs %FILE%

Easy! The file system object (fso) has a method to create a new folder called CreateFolder().

So just use

fso.createFolder( "newname" )

with whatever the new name needs to be
