In this tutorial, we explore PowerRename, the third utility to be released as part of Microsoft’s new suite of PowerToys. PowerRename adds an entry to the Windows context menu, enabling bulk renaming of multiple files via a simple interface invoked via a right click. We tour the various renaming options provided, and demonstrate the simplicity with which changes can be undone. More advanced users will also benefit from the additional functionality offered via the inclusion of regular expressions.
