Renaming multiple files at once can be a time-saving technique, especially when you have a large number of files to rename. Here are some ways to rename multiple files at once:
1. Using the built-in Windows file renaming feature:
- Select all the files you want to rename.
- Right-click on the first file and select "Rename".
- Type in the new name and press Enter.
- All the selected files will be renamed with the new name, followed by a number in brackets.
2. Using a third-party file renaming software:
- Download and install a third-party file renaming software, such as Bulk Rename Utility or Advanced Renamer.
- Open the software and navigate to the folder containing the files you want to rename.
- Select the files you want to rename and choose the renaming options you prefer.
- Click "Rename" and the software will rename all the selected files according to your specifications.
3. Using the command prompt:
- Open the command prompt by pressing Windows key + R, typing "cmd" and pressing Enter.
- Navigate to the folder containing the files you want to rename using the "cd" command.
- Type in the following command: ren [current file name] [new file name]
- Replace [current file name] with the name of the file you want to rename and [new file name] with the new name you want to give it.
- Press Enter and the file will be renamed.
- Repeat the process for all the files you want to rename.
4. Remove Specific word from your files name:
get-childitem *.txt | foreach {rename-item $_ $_.name.replace("(","")}
These are just some ways to rename multiple files at once. The method you choose will depend on your preference and the number of files you need to rename.
