Yes but not in one go and not quite as simply as I would like to be honest, but still relatively easily, there may be a simpler way to do it with another tool. I'm now thinking of adding filename as a tag field to be added automatically by SongKong but that is not available yet.

But quick instructions with Jaikoz as follows:
Open Jaikoz
Load approximately 50,000 files
Go to Preferences:Table:Columns and check Visible for the BaseFolder, SubFolder, Filename (these make up the path) and Comment and Custom1

Select all values in Custom1 field
Select Edit:Set Value and enter '\' for Windows or '/' for Mac/Linux.

Drag Comment column to right of BaseFolder column
Select all fields in BaseFolder and Comment columns
Select Edit/Append to Right

Drag Comment to right of Custom1
Select all fields in Custom1 and Comment columns
Select Edit/Append to Right

Drag Comment to right of Sub Folder
Select all fields in Sub Folder and Comment columns
Select Edit/Append to Right

Drag Comment to right of Custom1
Select all fields in Custom1 and Comment columns
Select Edit/Append to Right

Drag Comment to right of Filename
Select all fields in Filename and Comment columns
Select Edit/Append to Right

File:Save Changes


Load the next 50.000 files and repeat
Repeat for the remaining files

I can expand on this if necessary
