Bulk Rename Utility has evolved through a series of user-requests, one-off requirements, and general enhancements. Some of the features provided by Bulk Rename Utility include:
-- Very easy to use
-- Rename files, folders or both
-- Remove or change a filename
-- Perform string substitution
-- Change the case of filenames
-- Remove characters or words
-- Remove digits or symbols
-- Append or prepend text

-- Append the parent folder's name
-- Auto-number files with flexible rules
-- Automatically preview the new names
-- Sort the file details by any column
-- Group configurations into "favourites"
-- "Bulk Rename" Explorer extension
-- Directory recursion - process subdirectories too!
-- Rename files from an input text-file list
-- Create an "Undo" batch file
-- Log activity to a text log file
-- Change file and folder date/time-stamps (created, modified, accessed)
-- Change file/folder attributes (hidden, readonly, archived)
-- Small memory footprint
-- Settings retained between sessions
-- True 32-bit application
-- Written wholly in Visual C++
-- Application is totally free!
In addition to Bulk Rename Utility I also now have Bulk Rename Command. This lightweight, fully-compiled executable file contains many of the features of Bulk Rename Utility, but is designed to be run from a command line. It is perfect for inclusion in batch files, login scripts, or scheduled jobs. The appliocation is controlled entirely via program arguments, with no use made of .INI files or the Windows Registy.
