Quick tip: When renaming files, the ren command sees a period (.) as the end of the filename.For example, this command renames all ".jpg" files leaving the first three characters (which works as a unique identifier to avoid duplication) and appends "-hikingTrails" to the name: ren *.jpg ?-hikingTrip.* The question mark (?) is also a wildcard, but it represents a character of the original name you want to keep as part of the new name. The asterisk (*) is a wildcard that tells the ren command to rename everything with a specific extension. In the command, replace "FILE-EXTENSION" with the extension to change and "FILE-NAME" with part of the name to add to the files. Type the following command to rename the files in bulk and press Enter: ren *.FILE-EXTENSION ?-FILE-NAME.*.
(Optional) Type the following command to view the files in the location and press Enter: dir.Type the following command example to navigate to the folder with the files to rename, and press Enter: cd c:\PATH\TO\FILESįor example, this example opens the "files" folder inside "Documents": c d %USERPROFILE%\Pictures\rename.Search for Command Prompt and click the top result to open the app.To rename multiple files in bulk with the same name structure with Command Prompt, use these steps: Once you complete these steps, Command Prompt will rename the file with the new name available in the command. Repeat step 5 to change the name of the remaining files.
