    My only error was to install the plugin and use it without testing it on one post first. It got an entire set of posts messed up.
    Moreover, the plugin is totally redundant of the core bulk edit function, which I discovered after the fact.
    I believe I am entitled to leaving my opinion here without consulting the author first as this gives anyone a heads up on possible issues, benefitting the community in a timely fashion without wasting time waiting for a reply to an issue that might not even get addressed with the due amount of hurry. If this gets me reprehended by a moderator, I believe the wp community is changing for the worst.
    Have a good one.

    Sorry for checking out this post after so long.

    There’s an option on the plugin page which says “Preserve existing categories for selected posts.”

    If this option is checked, then it doesn’t remove existing categories. Please try this out and let me know.
