@cb219 Nobody bothered to spend a day reading the code?

@BordedDev let me correct this after better understanding: people know what it does since the code is available. But nobody knows which other systems are dependent on this. Its purpose is apparently just about moving files from a to b.

@cb219 Do they do it through a network connection or something?

@BordedDev not necessarily. It might connect to a db, it might also connect to a NAS. Then again it might use a windows directory, that is then again mounted onto a linux server. It's all over the place.
