Disabled Rename button

Postby bc1235 » Wed Dec 20, 2017 3:33 pm

I am trying to rename a group of files from the Windows Spotlight directory. I first copied all the files to a folder in my documents then checked the permissions and all were writable. I then went into bulk rename, chose "regular expressions" entered "match" * and "rename" *.jpg. I then selected the files from my new spotlight directory so at this point files are selected and are highlighted, expression is entered in but the "Rename" button is still grayed out. I have also tried ctl+R which reports that no files were selected. Well they are selected.

Anyone have any thoughts?
