I just wanna extract all files "from all subfolders of a folder" like subtitles distributed in hundreds of sub folders in a folder called sub, In Windows File Explorer I can do this by searching star and then all files are shown then I can simply do selection and cut copy paste but in XYPLORer (only ctrl+a and Single file selection works as shown in the first attachment) selection and cut copy paste does not work, mouse selection of moultiple files does not work at all after searching.

Maybe you have different settings than me.

The steps are:
Copy the folders
Go inside the Target folder
Paste the folders
Go one level up and ctrl + Right click on the Target folder (or w/o ctrl)
Select "Flatten folder"

Tried following all those steps but I don't see such option anywhere ?

No, you didn't.
You clicked on the empty space.
I wrote "Go one level up and ctrl + Right click on the Target folder (or w/o ctrl)"

Did you try right-click with and without ctrl?

To follow that method, you need to enable "Flatten Folder" in here:
