How do I enter a Drive letter in the Multi Rename mask? As soon as I type the colon, the New Name becomes <Error!>
This is fine:
\D3300\[=exif.DateOriginal.Y-M-D]\[=exif.DateOriginal.Y-M-D]_[=exif.TimeOriginal.h.m.s]_[N]
This is not:
c:\D3300\[=exif.DateOriginal.Y-M-D]\[=exif.DateOriginal.Y-M-D]_[=exif.TimeOriginal.h.m.s]_[N]
Thanks.

You can't use drive letters in MRT and the reason is simple: the colon is a reserved/forbidden character that cannot be in file names. AFAIK the backslash is the only special character that is allowed in MRT (maybe forward slash as well, but I don't know that) to be able to move files to different directories. Apparently it's not possible to move files to different drives. You could work around that by subst-ing a drive to some directory on the drive the files are currently on (and telling MRT to move the files to that substed directory).
