Hello,
So I just downloaded this program a bit ago and it looks super powerful, though I'm just not sure how to use it. It could be that it's late at night over here but maybe someone could help me.
I've got a variety of mp3 files with double periods proceeding the filename extension e.g. File1..mp3, file 2..mp3.
Making this more frustrating is in a few folders, but not all, I've also got the same files with single periods e.g. file 1.mp3, file 2.mp3, giving me duplicates.
How would I go about removing the filenames with double periods using this program?
For reference, I'm using the GUI. This is all very new to me and is a little over my head. I'd like to, if at all possible, search recursively through subdirectories so I'm not constantly having to perform the same command. e.g. if an mp3 file has double periods before the extension then just either delete it (if there is the same file with single periods) or rename it to have a single period.
I hope I'm making sense!
Alternatively, if using the command line utility would be easier with a batch file I'm also open to this.
Previously, I was using this simple command. this is failing now that I'm finding mp3's with single periods though and I'd like to just get this over and done with using bulk rename utility.
for /r "Y:\timber files" %i in (*..mp3) do ren "%i" "%~nimp3"
any help appreciated!
thanks
