Fresh Start

• Hit the / key, or press the Add/Modify Keys button, to add shortcut keys.
• After adding a shortcut key, enter in the name of the tag/folder.
• Hit the shortcut key while an image is open, to tag the image. It'll automatically move to the next picture.

FAQs

Q: What's the prsmSupport.exe file?

Q: The images don't get sorted after pressing Split into Folders, or the app stops/crashes halfway.

A: If for some reason, the software isn't working, the reason may be your antivirus. Allow Pentaprism through the antivirus, or temporarily disable it. While at it, remember, you don't really need an extra antivirus for your Windows 10/11 system.
