How it works

  1. Select local files or folders in File Explorer.
  2. Press Alt + Space and type “Rename Files”.
  3. Configure the naming rule and review every proposed change. Undo is available for ten minutes.
  4. Start the action and check the result.

A practical example

Give a batch of files consistent names without renaming each one separately.
