Publisher's description
From Denis Kozlov :ReNamer is a very powerful and flexible file renaming tool, that offers all the standard renaming procedures, including prefixes, suffixes, replacements, case changes, as well as remove contents of brackets, add number sequences, change file extensions, etc. For advanced users, there is a PascalScript rule, which let users program their very own renaming rule.
The program allows you to combine multiple renaming actions as a rule set, applying each action in logical sequence, which can be saved, loaded, and managed within the program. In addition, ReNamer supports meta tags, such as: ID3v1, ID3v2, EXIF, OLE, AVI, MD5, CRC32, and SHA1; has an ability to rename folders, can process regular expressions, and supports Unicode filenames.

Version: ReNamer 4.17
Pros: I have tested over a dozen renaming tools which boast great functionality but this is is in the top three. What's more: this is the best of those. A distant second is RenameMaster and in third a shareware app I won't mention by name.
ReNamer is small, fast, and portable. It requires no installation which is definitely a must for such utilities. I carry ReNamer on all my USB Flash drives and you should, too! The only way the renaming process itself could be faster would be an option to not-show the progress in the GUI file-by-file, but instead via a counter thus requiring much fewer screen writes. However, this process is in no way slow. According to the explorer properties the exe and ini occupy a mere 1,933,312 bytes.
The author frequently expands the functionality releasing updates monthly (sometimes more). I'm always eager for new features so I've added the developers site to my WatchThatPage account. Additionally he is responsive to feedback, and quick to solve bugs at his newly created forums that I discovered by sheer happenstance. A new feature that exceeds my needs, PascalScript integration, is intriguing. I know no programming languages, but this feature in no way makes using ReNamer complicated.
I have opted for explorer shell integration so the process is exceptionally simple: right click, set options, click rename, done. I've lost track of the version, but for a long time now one has been able to save frequent ReNaming operations as a preference. This makes is VERY EASY to remove the inane 'scene' obsession with dots as spacers. There is already an easy filter operation to clean filenames. Tick the dot and underscore boxes and those annoyances are replaced with spaces! Rules are processed linearly and may be as simple as changing a suffix, prepending- or suffixing a few letters progressing to more complex operations like MULTIPLE search and replace (RegEx is available for geeks), to excellent FINE GRAIN functionality.
Cons: It doesn't cook breakfast
HERE IS MORE PRAISE:
The price simply cannot be beaten! It plays well with meta information in files like jpeg (exiff) or mp3 (idv2), as well as internal meta information like date, time, parent directory name. Oh, and it painlessly handles NESTED directories.
There are functions waiting to be discovered I expect.. as I have recently discovered spiffy features in ReNamer's context flyouts. The GUI is well designed and intuitive. However around, click, right click, its fun to explore and discover features.
The reaming process by default is non destructive, automatically previews operations by default, but will allow one to disable such protections in the options.
I cannot think else how this product could be improved, but I am confident that when I do and share my suggestions with the author if beneficial they will be either implemented or given fair consideration.
ReNamer absolutely is a MUST HAVE.
^^ the above are pros because there was not enough space for praise
