Thanks for this. But how do we rename files inside multiple folders? Eg. Folder1 > filename-1.jpg Folder2 > Filename-2 etc?

Thanks for sharing. I've sampled my guitar thus I have tonal samples I want to add to the file name e.g. C1, D1, E1, F1 etc Following your guide I can add sequential numbers e.g. 01, 02, 03 etc but how can I automate the process of adding the note values? Ty

Thank you! Could you speak to if there is a way to use this feature and include file metadata? If yes, would love a tutorial!

Thanks for the video. Quick question. When renaming multiple files and using the Date and Time function, will the date and time added match the date and time the file was made, based upon meta data, OR will it add the date and time that the file was renamed? Thanks!

A concise well presented video with excellent content. Transnomino saved me a lot of manual work.

Thanks for that, been bugging me for a few days, not something I use a lot, but when I do... Is there any way I can rename as just a sequential number, eg, no name just 1 to 20 say ? or does it have to be say, File 1 to file 20 ?

Would love to rename a couple of folders based on a column in a csv file

Is there a way to do this but using data from a spreadsheet? Thank you for the video.
