This is the portable version of Advanced Renamer, a tool that allows you to easily rename a vast number of files and folders.
Since installation is not necessary, you can simply place Advanced Renamer Portable on a removable drive and directly run its executable file on any computer. More importantly, your Windows registry items will not be changed.
The interface of the software may seem a little confusing at first (since no tutorial pops up to guide you), but Advanced Renamer Portable is actually very easy to work with.
You can start by adding files and folders into the list, by using either the file browser or the "drag and drop" method (e.g. include subfolders, add root folders).
In the list you can check out the name, new name, path and status of each file. But columns can be customized (e.g. add size, date of creation, extension).
When it comes to renaming, you can select the batch method (e.g. new name, new case, remove pattern, replace, renumber, attributes, timestamp), apply it to the name, extension or both, and proceed with the task.
In addition, you can switch from batch mode to move or copy mode, undo the previous batch, refresh the list, test the batch, save and load the list of files and folders, randomize sorting, change the interface language, and more.
The program takes up a low-to-moderate amount of system resources, includes a step-by-step tutorial and quickly finishes a task without displaying any errors. Putting aside the interface which could benefit from some directions, we strongly recommend Advanced Renamer Portable to all users.
