Renammer treats dots on FOLDER names, as indicarion of exten

[kwanbis]

But there are no file extensions on folder names.

Try with any folder name, for example, ABC.xyz, renammer would make it Abc.xyz, instead of Abc.Xyz.

This has been discussed before. I prefer to keep it as it is now, because changing it would break many saved rename schemes.

ghisler(Author), maybe you can make [F] working in extension field so one could use [F][E]? Or maybe another INI option?

It works already! (Remember to set the Upper/lowercase field to "Unchanged".)

white, you're right, it works if Upper/lowercase field is set to "Unchanged", but why it doesn't work if Upper/lowercase field is set to "First of each word uppercase"?

kwanbis, here a solution for you: you can use name template like [F][N] ([F] applies "First of each word uppercase" mode to string after it - press F1 to read more) and extension template like [F][E] with option Upper/lowercase set to "Unchanged", all will work.

Because the function corresponding with the Upper/lowercase field is executed after the function corresponding with the file name/ext mask.

It's not a solution, but a workaround because kwanbis expects extensions in folder names to be treated as part of the folder name.

BTW. The name mask "[F][N]" also changes capitalization of the extension.

You're right, I've missed that detail.

Agree, but it works anyway.

That's really funny.

Before dots were even alloved in folder names (old DOS, Windows 3) you could still put one dot in a folder name, because it was then considered an extension.

So to me, one dot in a folders name makes it a name with an extension (but I also never use spaces or dots in file names).
