Total Commander

Until Total Commander restart, Multi rename tool keeps last used settings.
So re-opened MRT window applies New name results for all selected files/folders. However, this behaviour causes freezing if rename setting using some slow plugin like TrID.
Suggestion:
On MRT re-opening during TC session, maybe only if plugin field used anywhere in MRT, TC can ask user:
1. Re-apply new names, plugins will be called.
2. Re-apply new names, load new names from cache (only if selection is the same as in previous MRT use).
3. Re-use last rename settings, but leave "New names" column empty (use F5 key to get rename results).
4. Load default rename settings.

Just save your preferred settings in the tool, and then open it via a button or custom command, with the following command:
MULTIRENAME saved_name

Can you please add then <previous> item to the list of saved settings (F2), so it will make possible to use a button:

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
MULTIRENAME
default
wcmicons.dll


0
-1

and then load settings previously used by MRT in TC session?

Reason: MULTIRENAME saved_name will immediately call plugins if they are used in saved_name.

Yo, I've suggested this some years ago.
