Import text file to rename existing files?

Post by *aguilafan »

Don't find this topic.
Need to rename hundreds of pictures with unique names (Talents). Can we import a text file to be used to rename the exiting files?

FOr example:

Existing files
f7ws9f8e79s.jpg
dd77rrnn33jj.jpg

Text file:
Donna.jpg
Harold.jpg

The result would be the text file names.

Thank you!

Select files to be renamed, open MRT (Ctrl+M), click little clipboard button (to the right from uppercase/lowercase options) and choose 'Load names from file' or 'Edit names'.

Thank you @MVV. Never noticed that icon and option before! Love the Edit Names in Notepad option.

You're welcome:) please note that you can select another editor via 'Configure editor' menu item if you wish to use it instead of Notepad.
