[SOLVED] Script (Batch File) Writing...

The txt file was all I needed.

Hope this helps

• Zip file contains
  • One slightly modified txt file from the one you provided.
  • One CMD file that uses the modified file to rename every filename listed.

If you read the top few lines in the modified txt file you will see the pattern that I created. You can add or remove any file in the list to be renamed.

Simply click the Rename.cmd file to start the script. However if you don't understand what is written within the script, you should always ask someone else to look it over before you start the script. I'm simply suggesting scripts are dangerous and should never be run unless you know for sure exactly what the script will do.


Rename.zip

Now I am confused Clifford, I can't see a zip file!!
A) It's Sunday
B) I live next door but one to a pub where everybody is dieing after the (alleged) match. Moi, aussi!!
C) Still Sunday!!

DOH!!! Log in FIRST helps!!!

You saying I can't trust you (final paragraph)? Actually wise words indeed. You know when you visit a site like (for example) askVG, and there is no defamation meant here, instead of downloading the "ready-made registry tweak" I'd rather type it in manually and export it for later use.

Because this is now a sort of a retro thing, i.e. I'd already re-named the files with a pre-fixed tilde, I went through the folders/files and randomly "un-renamed" them. Then hit your rename cmd. Worked a treat Pal, but then, you knew it would!!! THANKYOU, THANKYOU, THANKYOU.

Did I remember to say Thanks?????

Admin I don't seem to be able to mark this thread as solved. Is that because I'm in a "non-problem" solving side of the forum?? (Or is it because the beer's still working ??)

That would be my fault. It was 50 minutes later when I realized I had not uploaded the file yet.

You are very welcome. I happy that it works for you.

That option does not work in the Off Topic section. I moved the thread and then flagged it solved.

Thanks again Clifford
