:!: Format Expression refers to the custom naming scheme:

:idea: --apply clean is a command-line option. The GUI will do --apply prune by default (cannot be disabled) and cannot do --apply clean (cannot be enabled) so that you can't accidentally delete all your files.


:idea: However, you can create a *.cmd file and call the cleaner script, and then call / double-click that on demand.


:arrow: Personally, I would process all the files in the /input folder as usual, and not worry about left-behind junk files at all, and then just delete the entire /input folder and whatever is left inside at a later point in time, after all the video files have been moved to their final destination.
