Edit: I’m on Mac.
So basically first folder is ‘S01E01’ and it contains S01E01.mkv, second folder is ‘S01E02’ and it contains S01E02.mkv, and so on.
Is there some easy way to restructure this into just 7 ‘season’ folders containing the episode files?
I use the app Everything from voidtools, I can find the files by season in fractions of a second
exampletvshow S01
and then cut (the files - not the folder) and paste to a new folder. Not too high tech or advanced, but really fast and easy. I run into this all the time when downloading episodes from usenet and organize them.

I’d just create folders for the seven seasons and go back to each parent folder containing both the folders and files and use search funcion for the file type. Grab the files and drag them where you want thrm.

mkdir "Season 1" mv */*S01E*.mkv "Season 1"repeat x7
