Bulk Rename Utility

Hello-

I have several song files that look something like this:

10 Crocodile Rock

I've got about 500 files like this. I only want it to be Crocodile Rock

I think I want to choose the files, then go to the "remove (5)" table. Is that right? What selection would I make- remove the first 2 digits?

Thank you

Depending on your file set, that may work fine.
If there is always a space after the first two digits, you may want to change to First: 3.


For a somewhat more complicated set of file names:

1:RegEx

Code: Select all

Match:  ^(\d\d[\s-_])(.*)
Replace:  \2


Match files that start with 2 digits, followed by either a space, a -, or a _, then ignore that part.

Code: Select all

(I've place a "bar" | before the start of the renamed file name for readability.)

Thank you therube-

I just noticed that the top of the screen shows a preview of what the change will be!

Hello I have a similar problem removing numbers form the start of many file.
I thought his code would help but I got no joy.
This is what the file names look like:-
14001848_Rubadub.mp3
83027855_Get To The Chopper.mp3
48805275927_Code Name (Dub).mp3

And this is the result I am after
Rubadub.mp3
Get To The Chopper.mp3
Code Name (Dub).mp3
