Thanks.
I tried that, but with no results.
Let me get this right. I have a folder of files which I want to rename according to a list of filenames contained within a text file.
At present the files are called template1, template2, template3 ... template51. (although they could be called anything, as the utility's function is going to rename all of them.)
I locate the folder which contains these files in the left pane of Bulk Rename Utility. I select all the files therein.
I then select Actions > Import Rename-Pairs (as you have recommended). I have already created a textfile with all the names of the files (51 of them, so that the number of new file names is the same as the number of files to be renamed). I select this text file and click on Open.
I expect to see the new names of the file appear in the New Name column. But nothing happens.
Clearly there is something missing in this procedure, but without knowing what it is I cannot complete the process of renaming the files.
Therefore can you let me know where this instruction is?
Thanks.
