# gt-cleanup

Restructure the photos from Google Takeout into a folder structure, removing duplicates and extra files.

Files are structured as follows

      {destination directory}/{year}/{year}_{month}/{year}_{month}_{day}

After that, you can process the files further, looking for duplicates with your library, etc.

# unzipping the files

e.g.

```Powershell

Get-ChildItem .\Downloads\ -Filter *.zip | Expand-Archive -DestinationPath D:\takeout_2022\ -Force 

```
