Bulk Rename Utility

I have a number of files where the file name contains 2 double quotes ("). These files names were created from a CD ripping program that goes to the internet to get the stuff used to create the files names.

Is there any way to replace the " characters with blanks? When I try using the replace function the program won't enable the "Rename" button even though I have a number of files selected.

Thanks for your help.

Hi, when you select files after having entered the renaming criteria, does the new name column show then new name that would be applied? If not, the match and replace is not matching any chars.
thanks

Can you copy & paste the actual "quote" character into a post, here.

Can you copy & paste the actual "quote" character into 3:Replace box in BRU?
And if you do that, is any change noted (once you put something into the with: box)?

For instance, ? , (which is not a quote character) does not seem to be picked up in 3:Replace.


(I happen to be on XP at the moment, so that may be skewing what I'm seeing.)

I found the problem - The characters I want to change aren't doubles as used most of the time.

The are actually “ (hex 93) and ” (hex 94) not " (hex 22).

Right, that's what I was trying to get at.

And that does work.

3:Replace

Code: Select all

Replace:  “
With: <space>


Code: Select all

videop“play"back
->
videop play"back


Then you'd need to do the same for the " character.

You would copy those characters, as you have done here, & paste them into BRU.

Yes, it works. Thanks
