Here’s a great freeware utility for the PC that I personally use quite often. It’s very easy to use yet it is also extremely powerful. This application is very well suited for renaming your photo and MP3 collections.

File Renamer is an application that can easily rename multiply files at the same time from complete directories and subdirectories. You can find or replace all or part of a filename, delete or add characters, put letters in uppercase or lowercase, and place separators in multiple locations. It also features a preview pane so you can see exactly what the changes are.

The program has some powerful options such as a find and replace feature, automate copy / move renamed files, remove/modify file extension, and even a remove x number of characters to name a few. File Renamer is also great for MP3’s with its ability rename MP3 files based on ID3 tag information.
