Apply Random Sort automatically

Postby summiteer » Tue Mar 31, 2020 12:34 am

Hi, I have a strange use case in which I want to apply a random sort then add a prefix to a bunch of files in a folder. I know how to do this manually, but is it possible to do that set of actions automatically? I was thinking in some sort of batch script. Any help appreciated, thanks!

Bulk Rename Command, BRC, can do it.
You can download it from the Download Bulk Rename Command Line link.
Code: Select all
BRC32.EXE  /SORTBY:R  /PREFIX:ABC!@#---

(As written, it will preview your renames. You need the /EXECUTE commanded added on to actually effect the renames.)
