BRIDGE BATCH RENAMING

My photo file names (Titles) are all different and specific to each photo.

When Batch renaming I WANT TO KEEP THE FILE NAME/TITLE (Ringed in Blue) APPENDED TO THE END, after Sequence Number but HOW ?

Bear in mind each FILE NAME/TITLE will be different

I can not find a way to achieve this.

See attached batch rename sequence

    Ok so just search and replace. You won't lose anything on the end.


    In the end my Son suggested-

    "PowerToys" by Microsoft.
    using the Utility "PowerRename"

    Download and instal this (free from Microsoft App Store) and using File Explorer select all the files you wish to rename - Right Click on one file, from the drop down select PowerRename (maybe in the "Show More Options") then search and change.

    Just what the docter ordered 🙂

    You are going to need to use a regular expression to filter out the beginning of the filename.

    Please post a list of sample filenames that you would have.
