Rename Regular Expression 1.01

This Windows shell extension lets you use powerful regular expressions to rename a set of files. If you’re not familiar with regular expressions, don’t worry. There are many simple regular expressions to help you rename sets of digital pictures, tax records, any set of files. And RenameRegEx shows you how the files will be renamed before actually performing the operation. RenameRegEx can also automatically insert sequence numbers in the filenames.
If you need to rename a number of files in complicated ways, RenameRegEx can do it.
RenameRegEx adds a shortcut to the Windows Explorer context menu. When you select two or more files and right-click on them, you can select the Rename RegEx… command to display the RenameRegEx window. There you can enter the pattern to match and the replacement pattern, using the full power of regular expressions.
You can use the right-arrows after each expression field to enter any of the special characters above. This is usually easier than memorizing the sometimes arcane syntax of regular expressions.
The dropdown combo boxes store their previous values so you can easily reuse previous expressions.
The Case-sensitive matching check box enables, of course, case-sensitive searches, which ensures that the text will only match if the case matches.
If you select the Replace all matches check box, every match will be replaced with the target expression. If the check box is cleared, only the first match will be replaced.
If the Replace “#” with… check box is selected, any occurrence of the # character in the target expression will be replaced by a number, starting with the number you enter.
