Renaming files

Hi... Vista Home Premium, Win7, HP Pavilion laptop
I'm looking for a free file renaming utility. Something that can rename groups of files. I know they're out there. Just haven't needed one till now.
Thanks for any ideas.

 

Thanks. I'll download and explore. Looks good.

 

I use this one: http://www.bulkrenameutility.co.uk/Main_Intro.php I think this should be taken into consideration to be on Major Geeks, I've tired a lot of renamers and this one is very powerful. I use version 2.7.0.3 compared to the newest 2.7.1.2, as the newest has the typical 'toolbar' which can be opted out of but offers no new features I need.

*No affiliation, just a happy user.

After looking at the screenshots of ReNamer on it's homepage it is very similar, only difference I can see is all the options in bulk reanme utility are on a single page. Either one should do what you need.

 

Thanks, and I'll be looking at it this weekend. RD

 

A useful tool for renaming PICTURE files (bulk) is Irfanview. When you install Irfanview, you get that program, and what's called Irfanview Thumbnails, which you can use to batch edit, rename, resize, etc. pictures. I love that program, and it's of course freeware.

I use it too, but didn't know that was part of the program. I'll definitely look into that. Thanks. RD

 

I spoke to soon, when I went to bulkrenameutility website I noticed it had just been updated. No more toolbar, which to me is a step in the right direction. Seems like all freeware is offering them now, I fully understand why, money. Have to have it to live and many freeware utilities are made by individuals on there free time.

 

Nice, I like when users interaction and suggestions is taken into consideration. It shows we just are not screen names here.

 

I completely missed the sticky... I know this a lot of work and I for one and I know I'm not alone fully appreciate it!! Please keep my other idea from a while ago http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=206040 in mind. As Halo said in the other thread I know it would be way more work and all. Just something I would like to see but can totally live without. This place is already far ahead of all the other download sites.
