Auto load preset when starting in a folder

[Kopter3223]

Hello, I'm a very satisfied user of this tool and I instanly sent some money on my first day of use.
As I'm a software developer myself, I just want to present an idea for your further development, if you (the great developer of this tool) my want to consider to integrate this into your software.

When the tool is started via the context menu "BulkRename Here", it shall look for a file "autoexec.bru", and load it if it exists.

This would be very helpful for people who for example copy all their media files of a specific camera always into the same folder, and then will rename it with the tool.
I myself rename everything to YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_CAMERAABBR_PartsOfOriginalName e.g.
After renaming, I copy all of these files from different cameras to the big big "journal folder" where all my media will be in a sorted order.

After a weekend trip I usually have to go through 5 folders (Osmo Action, Osmo Pocket, Phone, Avata Drone, Mini Drone, Thermocam, ...) and rename them all.
In each of the folders, I have to load the preload settings first, and if there were an autoexec mechanism, this would save me up some time and prevent me from selecting the wrong preset.

I hope my idea finds some thumbs up.
Best greetings from Austria!

Hi! I think this is a great idea! if a BRU file called for example autoload.bru is present in a folder, then load that file when a certain folder is loaded in BRU or drag/drop / bulk rename here. The file itself should not be shown in BRU.

.. when a certain folder is loaded in BRU or drag/drop / bulk rename here.

Excellent extension to my suggestion. Simply when selecting another folder inside the app, the autoload mechanism starts.

This was added to the latest version for drag and drop and bulk rename here commands from File Explorer:

From release notes:
+ Automatically load renaming criteria from the file _autoload.bru on drag-anddrop or on Bulk Rename Here, if this file is present in the folder.

Thank you very much, Sir!

That was a great customization feature to add. Hopefully it's working as needed!

It does! It's exactly what makes my life yet easier
I went through als my camera folders, loaded the according .bru file, then saved it as _autload.bru into the folder itself.
The Setting "Use _autoload if exists" was already set after installing 4.0.0.4, also very well done.

The application really has a great, intuitive userinterface!
