can you rename all files in folder at once?

i have a folder with a ton of files named .loaded. How can I rename them so
I can take off the .loaded for all files at the same time?

Thanks guys. This will save me hrs of work.

If you select all the files in the directory with Ctrl-A and rename one
that rename will propagate to all the files; so if you called your
chosen file 'My_File', the others would become, say 'My_File(2)',
My_File(3) etc. It isn't the most elegant renaming solution in the world
but it works. Kind of.

Try at a cmd-prompt:

ren *.loaded *.

You can write a batch file with DOS ren command.

Try this from a command prompt, without the brackets.

REN [drive:][path]*.loaded *.[new extension name]

I use flash rename. I believe there is also a free renamer that you
can find to perform the task you need.

Hi,
I didn't see the original message, but could add that I've used Ant Renamer
at http://www.antp.be/software/renamer with some success in the past.

I use Flexible Renamer. I really like it, and I beleive it's still
free.
