Dear Internet:
I have about 1500 photos stored in a few dozen folders.
I'd like to rename each photo with the name of the folder, and then a counter:
/APPLES/DSC5675.jpg becomes /APPLES/APPLES-001.jpg
/APPLES/DSC5678.jpg becomes /APPLES/APPLES-002.jpg
/BANANAS/DSC5677.jpg becomes /BANANAS/BANANAS-001.jpg
/CABBAGE/2019-08-05-132347.jpg becomes /CABBAGE-001.jpg
etc.
So I:
* Launched TC
* Selected the parent folder
* Hit Ctrl-B to get all child files
* Hit Ctrl-A to select em all
* Hit Ctrl-M to launch MRT
* Changed the Rename Mask file name to "[P] - [C]"
* Set "Digits" to 3
Which almost gives me what I want. It numbers ALL files sequentially, in the sort order:
/CABBAGE/2019-08-05-13234.jpg became /CABBAGE/CABBAGE-001.jpg
/APPLES/DSC5675.jpg became /APPLES/APPLES-002.jpg
/BANANAS/DSC5677.jpg became /BANANAS/BANANAS-003.jpg
/APPLES/DSC5678.jpg became /APPLES/APPLES-004.jpg
Is there any way to get it to reset the counter for each folder (without going into each as a separate renaming event)?
Thanks!

Dan: You're gonna need to get someone to fix my computer.
Kim: What's wrong with it?

Re: MRT Counter Reset By Folder
As far as i know, Total commander does not have any reset counter expression.
You can do it folder by folder with TC..
Use external tools like :
Bulk Rename Utility Which have this exact feature
Advanced Renamer Using scripting
and some other...
A more complicated way would be to use a dedicated content plugin which have to be created
