Windows 10: Copy multiple folders content to another folder

I need to copy the content of aprox 500 folders to another folder (I want to have all in the same folder). Is there any way to do it with a program or commands? I dont want to do it manually because it would take a lot of time. Thank you!

Copying contents of multiple folders to a location

Hi,

In a directory I have multiple folders with files within each folder. I want to copy the contents of each of those folders to another location.

Is there a way to do this without having to open all the folders in a directory and dragging the contents to the new location?

[Using Search] If you need to do this using GUI, do a search for all files (*.*) from the from the parent folder (and search all sub directories). From the search results, select all files, right-click and choose "Cut". Open the destination folder where
you want to move all files to, right-click and choose Paste. But files that aren't indexed wouldn't be listed/copied... that's one thing
you need to watch out for.
