Wildcards In MultiRename Search and Replace

[kaymann]

Greetings,

I have music files that have some how gotten the track at the beginning of the filename duplicated, for example:

01 01 - Music file title
02 02 - Different Music file
etc.

So I tried using wildcards (?, *, #, %, $, etc) in the MultiRename Search and Replace and got no where.

What am I missing or is it back to Linux to fix literally hundreds of files :-)

Thanks and I did search for a similar post but could not find one...

You may use regular expressions, e.g.

Code: [Select]

(\d*)\s(\1)(.*)|$1$3So it would look like on attached screenshot

Fantastic - thank you for the quick reply!

Or if you want to remove the 2-3 at the begning just do [N,3]

Again thank you soooo much that is fantastically easy!
