Batch rename files in Windows 11/10

While you can always quickly rename multiple files in Windows without using any third-party software, Advanced Renamer will let you rename multiple files and folders at once by even letting you configure the renaming method. The first step in using Advanced Renamer is to select the desired files and directories. You can add as many files and folders as you want. You also need to choose whether the files should get renamed in the same directory or first be moved to another directory and then renamed. You can even preview the miniatures of your files by enabling the thumbnail view. The next step includes choosing a renaming pattern or case. First of all, you need to create a new pattern name and then add methods like numbering, case, and trimming, listing, and replacing. You can create as many names or methods as you want. The methods you create will automatically be saved so that you don’t need to create them again and again. You can even add attributes, timestamps, and add scripts. For easy and seamless browsing, you can enable folder panel so that you don’t need to open different explorer windows else you can use the program’s drag and drop functionality.

Once you are done with adding files, creating renaming patterns, and testing the batch, you need to click on the Start Batch button. The renaming process will start right then, and it will take some time if you’ve chosen a large number of files. If you’ve mistakenly clicked on that button, you can anyways undo the changes by clicking on the ‘Undo Previous Batch’ button. You may feel that the interface is somewhat hard to use as it offers all its options on a single screen. But a bit of practice will make it easier to use. A wizard-like interface would, however, have been given a better experience probably.
