Personal software / FileBridge
FileBridge A clearer path
for diagnostic files.
A Windows application for continuous folder-to-folder transfer, with independent routes, file filters, duplicate policies and visible transfer history. Built from an earlier batch/VBScript and Task Scheduler workflow.

The workflow behind the product
Diagnostic outputs needed a dependable handoff between network shares and the local clinical import workflow. The earlier script-based approach established the recurring copy procedure.
Why build an application
FileBridge brought the file-transfer and naming work into a reusable application. The application grew directly from a recurring operational need in the clinical workflow.
A repeatable handoff
Clear source and destination rules, consistent naming and duplicate-aware movement connect each step of the file handoff.
01 / Define the handoff
One source. One destination.
A route gives each folder pair its own identity and monitoring state. Local folders and network shares use the same route model; connection testing checks access before the transfer workflow.
02 / Make the rule explicit
Filter, wait, then transfer.
Include and exclude patterns, a file-ready delay, Copy or Move and a duplicate policy express what should happen to each eligible file. Separate timing controls make the recurring scan behavior visible.
03 / Keep the result visible
History survives the handoff.
The dashboard shows current activity. Searchable SQLite transfer history preserves completed and failed outcomes, supporting review even after another application consumes a delivered file.
The build
From recurring need to reusable software.
The recurring clinical file-copy task was the starting point. The application separates route configuration, file eligibility, transfer execution and persistent history. It is built for Windows with C#/.NET, WPF and SQLite; the public project includes isolated temporary-folder smoke tests.
