One Commander (free)

 

I bought it years ago to manage my samples and whatnot, along with AudioFinder, I probably use both of those together more than Logic Pro itself. All this time I had no clue it could manage audio metadata, I gotta go look up how to do more than add and remove text from filenames now haha.

 

Thanks for the all the advice! I tried out BRU and it's great. I will probably end up trying all these options though, much appreciated and Merry Xmas.

 

This is great for rename multiple files/folders with different names

 

Only for the sake of completeness: PowerShell !

 

Oldie but Goldie! Also works on Win 10!

Most flexible one and free is definetely LupasRename!

List of features!

It was the previous sw I used before Rename Master, for some reason I forgot it once I reformatted PC, I' get it back, was great.

 

for mac users, thought i'd leave this here, as it explains how to batch rename on a mac, without extra software:

at least the basic stuff i think is possible

 

Looks like an old thread, and there are a lot of great suggestions already, but here's my go-to renamer:

deb4b Team's ReNamer Lite http://www.den4b.com/

It's free, tiny, super powerful, and extremely simple to use. Highly recommend.

 

PortableApps.com
ReNamer Portable
(http://www.den4b.com/)

- rules - find, search and replace (regex-replace) and other actions available
- bulk rename (files or folders)

Isn't this limited to a number of files or rename operations ?

 

The absolute winner. One of my must-have apps.

 

same, if you know any regex you're set to accomplish any task

 

What doe Regex mean / do?
