Double-clicking _autoload.bru should navigate to that folder

Postby Kopter3223 » Mon Mar 10, 2025 9:47 pm

Thank you once again for adding the _autoload.bru mechanism according to my suggestion for 4.0.0.4!

So I use to launch Bulk Rename by simply doubleclicking an _autoload.bru file.
As a user, I expect to have the tool launched in the same directory as I doubleclicked the _autoload.bru file.
But, the tool uses the last recently used directory instead.

I tried to do a workaround by selecting the correct folder and saving the _autoload.bru again, but this doesn't work.
Because the foldername seems not to be part of the _autoload.bru parameters.

So here is my suggestion.
Please have the tool not selecting the last recently used folder, but instead the currently active folder - or let's say the folder where I clicked in the windows explorer.

Thank you for your great work! :)

Simpler said!
When launching the tool via doubleklick on _autoload.bru, it should please be started like "Bulk rename Here".
This is my suggestion.
Cheers, Ernst

Hi, right now opening the _autoload.bru file directly does not go to that folder automatically where the _autoload.bru is... however this will be available in the next build.
