Here is a handy tiny little program called "Picky Basket".
It basically incorporates itself into your right-click menu and allows you to "drop" selected files into the basket (it basically means it remembers all of their directory paths).

You can go through a bunch of folders and drop things into the basket. Then, you go to whatever folder you want and either copy or move all the files from the basket into the folder you are in.

I find it handy if for example you have different files spread all over the place and you want to use them all for some project. Well add them all to your basket and then copy them into a certain folder at once for ease of access later.

You can also choose to copy the directory paths from selected files into the clipboard. Then, you can paste them into - say - Notepad. That is handy for example with music files when you want to list those directories in notepad to then create an m3u list (playlist) from that text file (i.e. don't save as .txt but as .m3u)

Ok, enough rambling already.... here is the link
