Paste Filenames

Post by sgspecker »

Under the context menu "Rename Special...", I'd like to see an option called "Paste Filenames".

I often have a list of filenames in a text file or Excel that I would like to paste over the original filenames. This 1-to-1 copy/paste would be very convenient. I've used something along this lines in a program called FilePlay.exe, but it doesn't work with network drives.

I hate to admit I've never used this feature but doesn't "Edit Item Names" within Rename Special allow you to do this now?
Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!
