Advanced Renamer

This utility lets you rename automatically all the selected files in the Windows Explorer. From the Advanced Renamer window you can configure the options to rename all the files. This window has two tabs: Basic Options and Advanced Options.

From Basic Options tab you can configure some parameters in order to change the name and/or the extension of the files. There are two option groups, one to change the name and other to change the extension. For both cases the options are the same.

From the String field you must specify a text and from the Location field you must specify where the text will be inserted to. There are three options: replace the text in place of the old name/extension, insert the text before the old name/extension or insert the text after the old name/extension. You also can add a sequence after the text. To do this, you must specify the first element of the sequence, and the sequence will be completed automatically. You can specify both numbers and letters. For example: if you specify 001, the sequence will be 001, 002, 003, 004, etc; or if you specify 0A, the sequence will be 0A, 0B, 0C, etc.

You also can convert the case of the name/exntension. You must specify this by checking Convert to check box and choose the case format from the combo box below the check box. You can choose convert to:

·	losercase: all the characters are converted to lowercase.

·	UPPERCASE: all the characters are converted to uppercase.

·	Phrase format: the first character is uppercase and the other characters are lowercase.

·	Title Format: the first character of each word is uppercase and the other characters are lowercase.

From Advanced Options tab you can insert or replace a text into the name or the extension of the files. From the Apply to combo box you can specify where the changes will be applied to. There are two group options: Insert and Replace.

·	Insert. You must specify the text to insert in String field and choose where the text will be inserted to. You can specify: insert in a a specific position (starting with 0), insert the text before a specific text, or insert the text after a specific text.

·	Replace the substring included from a position to a other position with the string specified in Change with field.

·	Replace the text specified in Find string field with the text specified in Change with field. If Use regular expressions is checked you can use regular expressions in Find string field and Change with field.

If Match case option is checked, when a text is searched, the case of the all characters must coincide.

In the panel of the right side will be displayed a preview. In this preview you can view how the files will be renamed. There are two columns: old name and new name. The preview is updated automatically when you change some option.

You can move the files by dragging and dropping with the mouse pointer. This lets you sort the files when you configure a sequence from Basic Options tab.

If you don't want to rename a specific file, select the file in the preview and push the DEL key.
