However, this question seems to be for homework and according to Forum rules we are not allowed to complete it.
Still, there is no method to determine the truth from this perspective.
Gather some personal thoughts and ideas about the situation.
How would you approach this task?
Present your work and reference sources when needed.

In a similar situation, a family member has a large photos folder full of files, and she needs to organize it by retaining only folders with five or more images. For folders lacking that number, she plans to relocate those images to the root directory and then remove the folders, though she can handle this manually after identifying the relevant ones. She’s considering using TreeSize Free for this purpose.

The situation becomes slightly more intricate yet the main goal of locating folders and counting files remains consistent. A few extra measures will be included.
The project you envision should be prepared ahead of time. Designed in a structured way, allowing pauses whenever needed without losing direction. Avoid broad, unchecked attempts that might drift off course.
Not well acquainted with that related product, so I’ll rely on those who are more experienced.
Further considerations:
1) Ensure all photo directories are safely stored elsewhere, not on the current computer or storage device. Confirm files can be recovered and viewed.
2) Transferring files carries risks; use copying methods instead of moving directly. A failure during transfer might result in data loss.
3) Exercise caution with third-party tools—they may have bugs, be infected, or disrupt system stability.
4) Refrain from placing any files in the root directory. Instead, set up a dedicated folder for the selected images.
