Renaming Files One by One

Whether you want to add sequential numbers, change case, change extensions, remove or convert spaces, add folder names or each file's time to its name FileBoss has a quick and easy routine for doing so. And whether you are renaming files just a few at a time or batch rename by the thousands the routines work exactly the same.

 

Renaming Files Individually

 

1) Select the files you want to rename Individually

In the following example we have selected jpeg files that have just been imported from a digital camera.

 

2) Select Actions | Rename... from the main menu

 

Rename menu item on the Actions menu

 

3) Select the files you want to rename Individually

Note that the name and extension are separated so to more easily change the name without danger of accidentally changing the extension.

 

You can continue to rename or skip each file individually or at any time you can Rename All the rest of the files or Skip Rest thus ending the renaming.

 

Note that you can edit the new name anyway you like and then press the Rename button giving you total control over how the file is named.

4a) Use optional image Viewer while renaming files

If you are renaming image files you can turn on the Image viewer (ad denoted below) and FileBoss will display the current image. This is particularly helpful when naming files individually or in deciding which files to rename or not.

Note that the Image Viewer can be moved and resized to fit you workspace.
