Solve : NEED HELP RENAMING ALOT OF FILES.?

Answer»

Hello, I need help. I have 652 pictures that I would LIKE to rename in one shot. Here is an example of one file name.

"images_products_Parent_6M_thumb.jpg

The filename is too long and not usable as such. All the files begin with "images_products_Parent_" I want to remove this part of the name from all 652 files. For example, "6M_thumb.jpg"

I tried

C: rename image_products_Parent_*.jpg *.jpg

Please help,

Is it imperative that you accomplish it from the command line, using the built-in COMMANDS in WinXP? From your wording, I suspect it is not.

If you just want to get the job done, CHECK out IrfanView.
It is a picture viewer/editor/manipulator/whatever type program.
LOTS of features and functions. Very handy to have and use.

One of its functions is.... batch processing.
Includes batch renaming.
You would have to examine it for yourself to determine if it will do your job.

IrfanView is free.

You can download it here:

I hope this helps.
