Ignore folder "extensions" in Multi-Rename Tool
Posted: 2008-06-17, 12:29 UTC
Multi-Rename tool should not treat periods "." in folder names the same way as in files. Folders do not have file extensions.
For example renaming multiple folders where some of them contain periods like:
Folder_v1
...
Folder_v5.0
Folder_v6
Renaming them using "[N] TEXT" mask would result with
Folder_v1 TEXT
...
Folder_v5 TEXT.0
Folder_v6 TEXT
which is obviously flawed. In my opinion there is no reason to use file extensions for folders at all
