Renaming multiples folders with date

[Kamaleon]

Hi everyone!

I'm trying using TC to rename many folders that contain dates separated by a hyphen

2022.01.25 喜多川海夢

but so far I haven't been able to do it, could anyone help me solve this?

Thanks in advance!

Try this rename mask:

Code: Select all

[N1-4].[N6-7].[N9-]

If the hyphens only exist within the date and nowhere else in the filename, you can also use MRT's Search/Replace function. Search for:

Code: Select all

-

Replace with

Code: Select all

.

- select the folders (or search for them)
- open MRT (Files > Multi Rename Tool...)
((if you rename sub folders, start renaming by the lowest))
- search: -
- replace: .
- disable the [E] while working on folders

To replace " - " with a single space " " use MRT and just type both strings (without quotes) in proper fields, as you can see below:
Search for: [ - ]
Replace with: [ ]
