file renaming

I've renamed photos within a folder many times without a problem but today I noticed that 2 or 3 photos had been given the same number. Eg. Pix 01, pix01, pix01 , pix02, pix02, pix02 etc The photos in each are different, intact and can be opened OK. Wondering how this can actually happen and...

Hello everyone! I have a bit of a unique issue. I have a rather large library of media files of many different types. JPEG, GIFF, MP3, ACC, AVI, MPEG, MP4 ect... Most of the files have an incorrect extension, or no extension at all. This is entirely my fault as my fix for not enabling...

I sometimes copy/move multiple files + folders within WinExplorer by Drag&Drop to another folder where these files & folder already exist (as an older version with the same name). Then always a popup prompt appears aksing me if I want to - replace the old existing files - cancel the operation -...

Hi I have a folder with around 40,000 jpg images, family photos etc. I spend my spare time renaming the images, so for instance an original photo named P01234567 might become P01234567-andy-les-jane, thus showing the names of people actually in the photo. This is great since I can then search...

When I rename a file, the entire file name, including the extension, is highlighted. This means that if I just start typing, the extension is erased. How can I make it so that only the name is highlighted? I still need the file extensions to be shown, I just don't want to have to change them as...

When I try to rename a file, I right click on the current filename then left click on "rename" . But it doesn't give me enough time to go to the filename to change it. This doesn't happen all the time, but enough times to really frustrate me. At the same time, I notice that the open windows...

Going back to my days on XP, I lost count of the number of times I went to rename a file only for it to disappear because I'd clicked Delete in the Context Menu instead. This set me on a mission to find out how to change the order of the context menu entries, eventually stumbling across the...

Hello, recently I got some problem with my win7. Yesterday I downloaded 2 MKV files and I can't click/right-click on them as it shows error message "Windows explorer has stopped working", then I've been given 2 options : Check for solution or Restart the program. And it lags so much when the...

In old windows, when you renamed a photo, it stayed in the same place in relation to all the other photos in the folder until you closed and then reopened the folder. Now in 7 and vista, as soon as you rename it, it gets reordered in the folder by name. It jumps away from its current position...

Hi guys, is there a way to install a 7 OEM (coming from Vista Business) without wiping the HD? I know there were some tricks in the past regarding this by renaming a file but dunno about this situation. TIA!

I'm looking for a way to change the functionality of the single click actions for files in Windows 7. As it is now, if you click on a file, it highlights it with a faint highlight. If I click it again it attempts to rename the file. This makes it a PITA to delete files if they are...

Hi all, I'm running into three issues which I'm guessing are related -- 1) Windows 7 seems to protect certain folder trees differently than others. In particular, the Program Files tree. If I try to copy a file to a folder in that tree or rename a file in one of the folders, I get a dialog...

If I make a new folder, it won't appear until I manually refresh the screen. This could be within another folder or something on the desktop. If I rename a file, it doesn't change until I manually refresh as well. What can things like that be related to? It might've been like this close to...

For reasons I won't bore you with, I need to make the file C:\Windows\Fonts\msgothic.ttc unavailable for a while, so I want to temporarily rename it to msgothic.ttc.old. Anybody who's tried to rename an installed font file in Win7 could probably guess what happened: Then I discovered the...

I have been having this problem with my Windows 7 x64 Professional install. Whenever I delete a file to the recycling bin, and then drag it out (to the desktop usually) to restore, the file is renamed to what it would be like in the temp folder. Is this the expected action of Windows 7 and...

Hi, I'm having this issue since I moved to W2008 R2 64 bits. I was using W2008 X64 before and it worked absolutely fine. As I'm using W7 X86 on my notebook since it was available on the MSDN website as a RTM version, I thought I would like to have a homogeneous working environment so decided to...

When saving items, as I hover over existing files in a folder, the document or file that I am saving, the file name changes to whatever I just hovered over. I have saved over the top of 3 existing documents now. Example: I have doc1, doc2 in folder1. When I go to save doc3, in folder1, work...
