Got the answer from Perplexity:
To replace all instances of "June 201*" with "201*-06" in Bulk Rename Utility, you can use the following steps:
Open Bulk Rename Utility and navigate to the folder containing the files you want to rename.
Select the files you want to rename.
Set up the renaming parameters:
In the "RegEx (1)" section, enter the following:
Match: June (201.)
Replace: \1-06
This setup uses a regular expression to match "June 201" followed by any character (represented by .) and replaces it with "201" followed by the same character and "-06".
Preview the changes in the "New Name" column to ensure it looks correct.
Click "Rename" to apply the changes.
Here is a step-by-step breakdown of the parameters:
Match: June (201.)
This pattern matches "June 201" followed by any single character. The parentheses create a capture group for "201" followed by any character.
Replace: \1-06
This replacement pattern uses the captured group (denoted by \1), which is "201" followed by any character, and appends "-06" to it.
This method ensures that "June 201*" is correctly transformed into "201*-06" for all matching filenames.
