Bulk Rename Utility

Hi,
As is says in the title, I'm wanting to remove everything after two characters (The first instance of T2 in the below example) but there are variations which makes it difficult.

For example:

14692-2A-010-A-24-0-T2-62-14692-2A-010-A-24-0 T2

Needs to become:

14692-2A-010-A-24-0-T2

The issue is, the amount of characters before the first instance of T2 can change as well as the number after T.
To help try and clear things up if there is confusion, here is another example:

14692-2A-1100-A-32-5-T6-109-14692-2A-1100-A-32-5 T6

In this example, it needs to be trimmed after the first instance of T6.

If somebody could help, I would very much appreciate it!

Thanks.

Try this.

RegEx (1)
Match: (\S*-T\d)(-.*)
Replace: \1

Brilliant! Thank you. That will save a huge amount of time.

I too have the same question.

"space(*)" is what i'm trying to remove. The space(*) was added by windows back up So there are many sub folders and files that have the date added.
The big problem is that all the added information is breaking web pages I am trying to resurrect.
I've tryed a two step process of cropping everything after a "space" then removing the space. But in the folder copied to after editing the files are all dumped into a main directory. So i'll try making a copy of the main web sites folder (2) and then just editing that inplace with out moving/coping renamed files into new locations.
Thanks.

(SNIP) and about 900 more files

Total Files Listed:

98 Dir(s) 351,951,511,552 bytes free

The slash / in the dates is not valid in Windows file names so I'm not sure how you get over that, but from what you've said it sounds like you know how to overcome that problem.

Try this.

RegEx (1)
Match: (.*) \(.*\)
Replace: \1

BTW an alternative but more basic way to do this is to use Remove (5) -> Crop (After) and specify the two characters to crop the file name after.
