Mass Renaming Files

I've googled this but only got a loud of dog shite.

I want to tell the a program to delete out certain characters in a file name and also get rid of _ and replace them with a space

So for example:

01_Song_1
02_Song_2

will look like

01 Song 1
02 Song 2

Does anyone know of any program out there?

Thank you

Re: Mass Renaming Files

If it is songs (maybe just mp3s even...), and they have also have ID3 tags then mediamonkey can do renaming based on them...
(Without tags, You could even tag based on the filename, then rename based on the tags as a slightly convoluted way of doing it...)
It could probably be done with some DOS scripting as well, but I have no experience of that...

Re: Mass Renaming Files

you can use dos commands if the files all follow the same format

Re: Mass Renaming Files

Again, if it's songs then MP3 Tag Tools allows you to 'clean filenames' which would do all the changing '_' to ' ' things for you.

Re: Mass Renaming Files

I recommend Tag&Rename. You can do this easily with that.
