Please Help renaming files

[fatman01]

Hi Everyone

I’m tiring to make batch file to rename oeminfo.ini to oeminfoBAK.ini and if it exist to auto rename oeminfoBAK1.ini and BAK2 and BAK3 and so on..
I would also like to rename oemlogo.bmp to oemlogoBAK.bmp at the same time and the same way.

if exist c:\windows\system32\oeminfoBAK.ini ren c:\windows\system32\oeminfo.ini oeminfoBAK2.ini

if exist c:\windows\system32\oeminfo.ini ren c:\windows\system32\oeminfo.ini oeminfoBAK.ini

if exist c:\windows\system32\oemlogoBAK.bmp ren c:\windows\system32\oemlogo.bmp oemlogoBAK2.bmp

if exist c:\windows\system32\oemlogo.bmp ren c:\windows\system32\oemlogo.bmp oemlogoBAK.bmp

It works only once before errors. I know there is a better way.

Any help would be deeply appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
