Batch File Renamer

System ideaMissing a tool?

Plan a bulk rename and export it as CSV

Choose a batch of files, set a find/replace, prefix, suffix or sequence rule, and see every resulting name before you act. This only builds a plan and a CSV; it never renames a file on your device.

No files selected yet

This only builds a plan and a CSV file. Nothing on your device is renamed, and no file is uploaded.

Everything on this page is processed in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.

What this tool does

Renaming a folder of files by hand is slow and error-prone, but giving a web page permission to rename files on your disk is not something a browser allows anyway. This tool picks the middle ground used by careful file management: it reads the names of the files you choose, applies find/replace, prefix, suffix, case and sequence-numbering rules, and shows the full before/after table with any name collisions flagged. Export the plan as a CSV and use it as a checklist, or as input to whatever bulk-rename tool your operating system provides. The files themselves are never modified, moved, or uploaded — only their names are read.

How to use it

  1. Choose the files you want a rename plan for.
  2. Set find/replace, prefix, suffix, case or numbering rules and watch the preview update.
  3. Download the CSV plan once no names collide.

Privacy

This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your input is never uploaded, stored or shared — closing the tab removes it.

Frequently asked questions

Does this rename the files on my computer?
No. Browsers cannot rename files on disk, and this tool would not do so even if it could — it only computes what the new names would be and lets you export that plan.
What happens if two files end up with the same new name?
Both rows are flagged with a warning icon and a note beneath the table, so you can adjust the rule before relying on the plan.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. Only the file names are read in your browser; the file contents are never accessed or sent anywhere.
