Context Menu that Renames Files

G

Gary.Flynn

I'd love to right click a file I downloaded legally with a name like

"01-legally_downloaded_artist__-__song_title.mp3"

and have an option to rename that file

"Legally Downloaded Artist - Song Title.mp3"

It seems simple enough that I may be able to write it myself, but I
don't know where to start.

Could I put the necessary code into a dos batch file, then associate
that with the context menu?

I'd appreciate any help at all that would help me start this
project.

If it has already been done, (especially as freeware) all the better.

Thanks in advance.

Search for file rename utility...

I used to utilize a shareware program called RenameWiz... Great application:

Then I found a true freeware called "ReNamer" and now I use it:
