Guide and tips
How can I rename multiple files at once on Windows?
When a folder contains dozens or hundreds of files, renaming them manually can become repetitive and error-prone. This often happens when organizing photos, videos, documents, graphics, or files generated by different applications.
Consistent naming makes files easier to find, sort, and categorize. For example, a collection may need a shared name, a project ID, or sequential numbering to keep everything in the intended order.
Batch Renamer lets you apply renaming rules to multiple files at once. Use text replacements, prefixes, suffixes, and sequential numbering, including in folders that contain subfolders.
Before applying a rule to a large group of files, review the pattern and check a few sample names. An incorrect rule can change many files at once, so check the expected result before applying it.
