How Batch File Rename can improve your business






We are all looking for ways to improve our efficiency as individuals or as businesses. This is a continuous process that keeps taking us to altitudes higher than before. The file renaming tool that we would be dwelling upon today is one such useful application that can works wonders for you & your business. 

                         The modern day office space has a complexion that is quite different from what offices had around 10 years ago. Instead of individuals poring upon files, we have computer systems that have automated this task of handling data. This has led to a manifold increase in the output being thrown out for utilization. This stockpiling of data & information has led to a set of troubles that are peculiar to it alone. One of these is the problem of mass file renaming. These days you have to morph hundreds of files in a matter of minutes to make them conversant with the task at hand. This renaming is basically repackaging which is essential for each new assignment that you have to handle. A more laborious task that is linked to this is the task of editing extensions to make the files compatible with the given software. For example if you have a version of Word which saves files with a .DOCX extension & you need to make these files compatible with notepad in bulk, you are saddled with the mundane task of right clicking & editing those hundreds of files so that they may have .TXT extension. This is a thankless job & when done manually with a few hundred files at hand, it becomes both time consuming as well as imperfect. Once you are done editing & have packed off the files for execution by the concerned individual, you realise that there are still 20 odd files lying around with you which were not edited because of the large number of files that you had to deal with.
       



Batch file rename is set to change all that. You can dump in files of multiple format in to it using the box given. You can also apply a filter to select only files with particular type of extension only, for example if you only want .XLS files to go through this process, you can apply a filter to ensure this. The renaming is done as per your style & format. While selecting the files & folders meant for renaming, you can also move or copy them if you so desire. You can add suffix, prefix, separators, etc. to the given files. You can also change the extension of the selected files to make them compatible with any given application. If you do not want to rename all the files in bulk, custom rename gives you the option to rename files manually selecting only the files that you wish to get renamed out of the given set. The files renamed can be saved in a target folder for future use. These files would thus be different from the ones that you originally had & the originals can be kept intact in their original place for future use. You do not have to worry about compatibility either as this software is compatible with all file formats & all popular versions of Windows with easy installation for all. This right here, is a piece of advancement that you absolutely need to get your efficiency on par with the need of the times.
