What’s This About?
Flexible Renamer is a portable program that will rename files and folders, change file attributes including dates, change tags for different file groups (music, photos, docs, etc.) It has very powerful rules and methods combined with a wide range of options, defined presets and methods as well as both simple and advanced ways of working.
Why Would You Want It?
The need to rename batches of files in collections of photos, music tracks, documents, archives, websites, etc. can be met by many programs. However, Flexible Renamer offers this and more in a small portable program which includes comprehensive renaming rules, changing dates, changing attributes, changing tag information for most common tagged files and the ability to create batches of prenamed files. Sometimes you just want to add something to a file name, for instance you may want to add a place and date to the name of all the photos you took on holiday. You might want to add something to a batch of documents that all relate to the same project. As you can use the file date for sorting in many file explorer programs you may want to change dates as a method of indicating that older dated files are part of a “most recent” set on a particular subject. This, combined with the ability to also change the folder names and tag information makes Flexible Renamer very powerful

I have a huge music collection on my hard drive. Many of the music files are numbered rather than by artist or genre. This will save me weeks of frustration and boredom of renaming all of those files. Perfect.

There are many file renaming programs, but sometimes you need to rename realy huge amounts of different files, and for this special case you need a tool like Peter+s Flexible Renaming Kit 2.06 which is specialized in working with thousands and thousands of files at the same time.ReNameIt is a powerful desktop tool which will help you rename & index any number of files quickly and safely. If you need to index your pictures, MP3s, movies or if you simply need to keep your files in perfect order then ReNameIt is the tool you need.

Flexible Renamer, it does change all files at once right? I was thinking for such a program for windows, I’ve already seen renaming program in Linux which helps a lot for renaming hundreds of file at once. Great sharing buddy and a wonderful review. It does save a lot of time. Thank you.
