Rename sequential numbers

[paulk]

I have a bunch of files who's names were altered by an android gallery app without any extensions.

If I manually rename to add an extension they work fine so not encrypted.

Problem is they are a long string of HEX charactors.

I had no problem adding the extension but cannot seem to find a means to rename all files to just a series of numbers. 1.mp4, 2.mp4..5.mp4,..so on.

Ideas

Hello,

How do I get BRU to load the files in the same order that they are in the origin folder? ...ie...in the origin folder the files are in order ...image (1) , image (2) , image (3) ...etc up to 40. In BRU , they are loaded ..image (1) , image (22) , image (15) etc and as a result, BRU incorrectly renames the files , so per the example above , BRU converts.... image (1) ->1.png , image (22)-> 2.png , image (15)->3.png etc. I'm guessing it has something to do with the brackets "( )", but i'm not sure.

Thanks.

@mhouse777 Must put a checkmark inside for the menu "Display Options, Sorting, Logical Sorting"
Then can click the "Name" column, so the number-strings will sort either ascending or descending.

I am a senior past his prime with computer stuff so I would appreciate any help you can provide.

I have a folder with about 250 JPG files that have a 5 digit sequence number at the beginning of the file name.

What I would like to day is remove the existing sequence numbers and replace them with a new sequence number starting with 30 and incrementing my 30

Thanks

Hello,

Any help would be really appreciated.

I have a number of files which I like to rename, and increase the numbers at the end by +37. I tried removing the last five digits and adding a suffix of the correct number with an incremement of 37, but it increments from the number I provided, not from the number the files had the end.

For example: IMG-13448 should be IMG-13485.

Files are not sequential, so I'd like it to read the number from file and add 37.

Second file is IMG-13450, should be IMG-13487.

Is there any way for the software to do this. Basically, any files with numbers at the end will get 37 added.

Many thanks in advance.

With having the paid version, this can add 559... http://www.bulkrenameutility.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=4849#p13292
So inside of that javascript code, could probably just change the +559 ---> +37.

Javascript renaming:

Code: Select all

const myArray = name.split("-");
newName = myArray[0] + "-" + (Number(myArray[1])+37);
