i just want to remove the numbers on my files
it doesnt work for me. I am trying to replace the prefix for files with [AVI] rename-item : Cannot rename because item at 'F:\Videos\xyz-1080p\Output\[AWI] xyz - S02E17 [1080p] [Multi-Audio] [06130AE3].mkv' does not exist. At line:1 char:33 + ... childitem *.mkv | foreach { rename-item $_ $_.Name.Replace("[", "") } + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (:) [Rename-Item], PSInvalidOperationException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : InvalidOperation,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.RenameItemCommand

@@sakori12 I got it to work, it requires you to put quotations "file" on each file. But whenever i did this, sometimes i got weird symbols. try it and maybe it will work for you
How to delete from index x to y in pdf
did not work for me
Very useful, thank you!
Not working
itss work thanks
god bless u
Wow! What a great help you've given. I would like to add something though. We don't exactly need **.png thing. A simple *.** can work. If a folder has multiple types of files, this change in code can rename all the files. So this code will be lot more useful: get-childitem **.** | foreach { rename-item $_ $_.Name.Replace("Flag_of_", "") } I think you should pin this. As lots of people who will say it's not working would not grasp the thing that your original code only works for png extension.
Thank you.
thanks! absolutely ridic msoft does not have a native find and replace feature in win explorer.
Very useful powershell command ! Thanks !
Working on windows 11?
Thank you very much. This was very helpful.
Fantastic tutorial, Absolute genius! Just what I needed to to remove track numbers from all my music files, which was put there by iTunes a long long time ago to my entire music collection. So glad I found this fix to use, it's making things allot more easier... Thank you so much The Scalehub for putting this up online to help, God Bless you ! 😄🙏❤
how did you type in the file number part? I am trying to do the same thing.
Thank you very much I also struggled 1 hr for this very helpful Just a correction after selecting file and pressing shift you have to press right click not left. Thanks 😊
Thank you very much! You are the best, god bless.
What if the prefix are different for all but no. Of letters is same
What if they are numbers though and the files all have a different number?
Didn't seem to do anything on mine, the command runs but doesn't rename shit
Thank you very much for this explanation. I have searched a lot for this method, and today you explain the topic simply and in one minute. This thing really deserves praise and thanks, but I have an important question!! How can I change the names of files from the outside and not their content from the inside?? Example I have pictures of my travels and file titles 12-3-2020 - Japan 3-5-2016 - Thailand How can I delete the history so that I want the file to be only in the name of Japan and Thailand without the year?
using Powerrename from PowerToys is a lot easier method; just a heads up!

it kind of works, but it inserts a space which makes it completely unusable for me.

Thank you very much, this is very helpful! Would you be able to share the code for renaming multiple folder? And is there a way to also change the file names of files that are inside subfolders?

THANK YOU madam! 🙏Crystal clear video and straight to the point. <3
Thank you VERY much, just a tip for other users, if you need to rename files that ARENT .png, for example i was doing .mp3 replace that in the code " get-childitem *[INSERT FILE TYPE HERE] | foreach { rename-item $_ $_.Name.Replace("Flag_of_", "") }"
the post i was looking for. well done.
