Multi file rename entire directory to a set list of names?
Posted: 29 Nov 2015 21:48
This is hard to explain but I currently have a folder full of files that I constantly have to rename to certain names.
Currently I rename all my files with a batch renamer to set filenames that I then run a batch file to rename them, but it's tedious. I would like to be able to rename them to the set names no matter what files I have in there.
Here is my current batch file
Those renames are always the same but the original names on the left I want it to work no matter what the names are. There is no required order either, there will always be 29 files in the folder and they need to be renamed to the names on the right.
Thanks in advance.
