How can I delete the first ten characters of file name of all files in a folder?
And how to delete particular characters in file name of all files in a folder?

Select the files, right click on one, then select "Rename special > RegexpReplace"

Delete first ten characters: "^.{10} > " (space at the end!)
Delete a, f, and z: "[afz] > " (space at the end!)

You'll have to look up case-sensitivity if you need that. I don't know it offhand.

I thought it was the same person just asking an unrelated question. If I saw it was a different person, I'd've thought twice :oops:

Whilst I find the history items useful, there are times when it would be handy if it were possible to delete all list entries in one go as opposed to having to go into each menu item under Tools > List Management in turn.

Could an function be added to do this or is it possible to do this via scripting… possibly with the option to choose which lists you want to clear?

Thanks,
