Folder Multi Rename

Post by sk2107 »

Hello,

Is it possible to rename multiple folders same way as multi file renaming?

for example: Replace aaa with xxxxxxx

c:\aaaa\bbbb\cccc
d:\xyz\aaa\ggggg\ssss
f:\kkkkk\dddd\999aaa444\dkkk

will be:

c:\xxxxxxxa\bbbb\cccc
d:\xyz\xxxxxxx\ggggg\ssss
f:\kkkkk\dddd\999xxxxxxx444\dkkk


Thank you.

To find and replace text in paths:
  • Select your files/folders.
  • From the Edit menu, under the Advanced Submenu, click Advanced Move to Folder....
  • Uncheck Regular Expressions.
  • Set the Old format to: aaa
  • Set the New format to: xxxxxxx
  • Double check the generated new filenames.
  • Click OK.
