BatchFileRenamer Description
Those who want to keep the computer clean and tidy also care about how shortcuts and other icons are arranged on the desktop, but also how files are named. However, it can be a pain to manually rename a bunch of files, but there are various specialized applications like Batch File Renamer to help in this regard.
Visually appealing and easy to use
It takes only a little while for the application to get installed on your computer to check out the set of features. Before downloading and installing it though, make sure that .NET Framework is also on the target PC, even though modern Windows iterations come with it as a default feature.
On the visual side of things, the application keeps all of its features in a clean interface that lets anyone accommodate in a jiffy, regardless of experience. Several panels cover the main window, one that’s used to show files you want to rename, the other for all corresponding rules you want to apply, while the other lists parameters of the rule you select.
Add files, define parameters, and save profiles
Batch File Renamer first needs to know what files you want to load, and this is either done through the browse dialog, or dragging a selection over the main window. These are then shown in a list, along with details like old and new name, date modified, size, and full path.
Rules are pretty easy to add and configure, a drop-down menu lets you select from options like AddText, RemoveText, Counter, ReplaceText, and Misc. Even if found on the list, you can choose to ignore them by ticking them off.
Each is fitted with its own set of custom parameters, which make it easy to add or subtract characters from fixed locations, or custom parts defined by numerical values. Preview is offered in real time, with the possibility to save profiles for later use. Triggering the process takes a little while, and file names are changed accordingly, either there, or copying files to a new location.
To end with
Taking everything into consideration, we can say that Batch File Renamer is a powerful renaming tool that is sure to save you a lot of effort when you need to perform such tasks, even if it’s just for counting a bunch of files. Adding files is easy enough, with real-time preview offered for name changes, while the set of rules is sure to meet most demands.
