  1. Hi ,
    This is exactly what i was looking for to sort my images, but i can’t get it to run. I get the following when installed with snap.
    filebydate
    Cannot find java. Please use the –jdkhome switch.
    Is it because it is a newer java?
    java -version
    openjdk version “17.0.18” 2026-01-20
    OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 17.0.18+8-Debian-1deb12u1)
    OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 17.0.18+8-Debian-1deb12u1, mixed mode, sharing)

    Thanks
