Remove all characters up to and including first underscore

Postby WillYoung » Thu Jul 20, 2023 4:22 pm

Can Bulk Rename Utility remove everything up until and including the first underscore of a batch of files?

Example:
15277060_Ashby_Green_Apartment_Homes_II_20230720_101057
15296244_Home2_Suites_Las_Vegas_Dean_Martin_20230720_101314

changes to:

Ashby_Green_Apartment_Homes_II_20230720_101057
Home2_Suites_Las_Vegas_Dean_Martin_20230720_101314

Thank you for your help.

One method:

5:Remove, Crop -> Special, *_

Should remove everything up to & including the first _.

Alternative method:

use RegEx(1) -> enable Simple

then

Match: %1_%2
Replace: %2
