Is it possible to rename
« on: July 19, 2024, 16:48:48 »
Is it possible to rename multiple folders with files in each, where you want to rename all files all at one time instead of one folder at a time without renaming the folder?

Thanks

If I get you right... Let's suppose there's a folder structure:

Code: [Select]
my_folder\
  subfolder1\
    file1.txt
  subfolder2\
    file2.txt
  subfolder3\
    file3.txt

You can enter my_folder\, switch to "Flat" mode (via Ctrl+Shift+B or "View mode" button in the top right corner of the explorer panel). It will show all the files recursively within one list:

Code: [Select]
my_folder\
  file1.txt
  file2.txt
  file3.txt

Now you can select these files and multi-rename them.

That's exactly what I want to do... but I do not see a 'View mode' button in the top right, but Ctrl+shift+B does exactly what I want it to do

Thanks

I didn't have "view mode" checked in settings... I see it now :)
