Batch rename of files

General

Dateien Rename in deutsch

If you e.g. have transferred pictures from your camera to the computer, the pictures become a cryptic name on the harddisc. Now you can rename these files individually and you can see in the file name what you can be seen on these photos. That's when a larger count of files quite tedious. So I thought about how you can automate this process. Here is my solution to this problem, rename the program file Datei Rename

It is possible to specify via any file extensions you specify in the box to the required extension is an easy extension. All cards are allowed in the file search. (Example: filename = IMAGE * 1 * - finds IMAGES 123.Extension; BilDer1D.Extension; bildungsreise1001.Extension, ...)

The Destination file name is automatically preset with the name of the directory currently being processed. The entry of a freely chosen name is possible, if the options are disabled for the automatic renaming them after the directory name.
