Is there a way to rename photos in a folder all at once in XP?

[davidos]

I just want them to say "vacation 1... vacation 2... , etc. instead of 1000119, 100234,

is there a way to do this in XP without renaming them one at a time?.... Did they think about organization?

Just highlight all the files, and right-click rename. If you name it "vacation" for example, it will rename the rest "vacation (2)," "vacation (3)," etc.

pcmagazine.com also has a free utility that is a lot more flexible. I think the name is MultiRen, or Multiple Rename.

irfanview can do batch conversion + rename also.

start -> run "CMD"
type "for /?" (without quotes), press enter. then write a batch that does a rename for each file in the directory.

FOR %i in (*) DO echo *i
that will print out all the filenames.
