#Weird default file paths

I tried to copy and paste photos directly from a folder to the immich-library photos folder using file explorer. The pictures I found are in three subfolders with weird ids, which is not very convenient for photo browsing in file explorer or to just drop file sdirectly . This is a path of a picture
"\snowdog.local\lrm\immich-library\upload\13d9fd8f-bebc-4a2f-a393-b4724b918cba\0b\55\0b555041-0fc5-4d8d-9682-856bbdb654e3.png"

Is there a way to setup immich with just a folder with all the uploaded pictures?

my .env


# The location where your uploaded files are stored
UPLOAD_LOCATION=/mnt/headlong/sambashare/lrm/immich-library
#UPLOAD_LOCATION=./library

# The location where your database files are stored. Network shares are not supported for the database
DB_DATA_LOCATION=./postgres

# To set a timezone, uncomment the next line and change Etc/UTC to a TZ identifier from this list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones#List
# TZ=Etc/UTC

# The Immich version to use. You can pin this to a specific version like "v1.71.0"
IMMICH_VERSION=release

# Connection secret for postgres. You should change it to a random password
# Please use only the characters `A-Za-z0-9`, without special characters or spaces
DB_PASSWORD=postgres

# The values below this line do not need to be changed
###################################################################################
DB_USERNAME=postgres
DB_DATABASE_NAME=immich

Also can't tell but you should never manually touch anything in the upload folder just as an fyi if you were trying

I have enabled it since, but I still don't see the folder. Is there a way to trigger a migration?
