Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This batch file renamer proves that free software doesn't necessarily have to cut corners. The interface is straightforward; every tool you'll need is accessible directly from the main menu. This program gives you detailed options for renaming files, letting you specify prefix, suffix, unique parameters, and extension. You also can find and replace any text string. Another useful feature is the ability to cut filenames. For better handling of your MP3 collection, File Renamer Basic can create filenames based on any combination of ID3 tags extracted from a file. We appreciated the ability to preview changes before they were made, and finding files by name or type was no problem thanks to a handy filtering tool. Because this free utility takes such a comprehensive approach to a simple concept, we have no problem recommending it to anyone who needs this type of functionality.Publisher's description

Version: File Renamer Basic 5.6.2
Pros: quick, effective, lets you test your skills with wildcard options from the olden days of DOS.
Cons: I don't recall seeing a good help page to go with the program. Maybe I haven't looked hard enough recently. A wiki page could be the way to go.
Summary: Does the job and more IMO. Highly recommended.
