I recently dloaded this utility and I simply cannot figure this out. I am not very computer literate but I have about 27k files that need to be renamed ...Hopong you can help...

My current files are somewhat mixed with an underscore appearing in some : SC4567-02_-_Artist_name_-_song_title

I would like to rename all without the underscore and a simple dash with space

SC4567 - artist name - song title (This is the goal)

Any advice how to accomplish this? without changing numbers or letters

Thanks in advance for any advice...

Go to the top level folder where your files are stored.

Replace (3)

Replace:
_
With:

Add a literal space in the 'With' field.

Filters (12)

Mask:

Tick Files and Subfolders; untick Folders.
