Comments and Reviews
I like it because I wanted to massively remove the part of a name from several files and it was very easy and fast.
The best open source batch (or mass) renaming software. I don't know what else is out there, but this has everything. A simple interface (although it could use a dark mode) and numerous features, including string integration anywhere in the file name, string replacement, and renaming based on day/date/hour/minute/second/random. I discovered it along with Bulk Crap Uninstaller and TreeSize in a list of open source suggestions for Windows. It's a shame it's not available on Linux, as it's the one I would have chosen without hesitation. EDIT: I’m struggling to find a Linux equivalent to this brilliant tool. Sure, there are plenty of services like the Nemo or Dolphin file managers, or a renaming tool, but none are as comprehensive as AntRenamer.
This app has Trojan inside. Don’t use it. https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/3c9bdc59842c786ef4cfba6ddbe39912326299104cc36a074b881d8ed68cc6c4/relations
1 shady Anti Virus flagged it as malware, not Trojan. Scanned it with Bitdefender and it's clean. Please don't scare people with false accusations.
Exactly what I wanted, and easy to use!
"Light" (i.e., not clunky, slow to start, etc) application that does the job lightning fast. I was desperately seeking alternative(s) to Bulk Rename Utility which I've used for years but for some reason (I'm on Win 10 & my music folder alone is just shy of 5 terabytes) it crashes/hangs constantly for the past solid year when accessing my external USB drive, driving me totally bonkers as have a TON of music. This Ant Renamer is FANTASTIC and I can't recommend it highly enough.
Actually works at regular expression, unlike some of the other top Windows renaming tools.
ReNamer is Freemium which only store max 5 presets or rules
