Batch to Rename Files

Usually we rename files on windows computer by click right on the files or press F2 then type a new files name. In this basic tutorial, we try to do it with a batch commands.

CMD rename code:

RENAME [drive:][path]filename1 filename2
REN [drive:][path]filename1 filename2

you can use RENAME or REN code, example :

REN D:\oldFilesName.doc newFilesName.doc

Batch rename code:

@echo off

title Batch Renamer

ren D:\oldFilesName.doc newFilesName.doc

echo rename is done !

echo press any key to exit

pause>nul

after knowing this basic rename code, you can modify more expert code to make batch renamer tool, and I'll make it more smart renamer tool later. hope it's useful for you.
