Rename All the Files in a Folder(Community)
Script Code
VBScript
' RenameFiles.vbs
' Renames all files in a specified folder (P1) to a specified naming prefix (P2)
' In addition, it appends _(number) to each filename prefix where (number) is a
' sequentially increasing number for each file. Filetypes are not modified.
' RenameFiles.vbs "c:\images\" Mickey
' will rename all files in the C:\images folder to Mickey_01.jpg, Mickey_02.jpg, etc.
'
' This is very handy for renaming a batch of files obtained from a digital camera!
