Batch Editing Filename Extensions

Hi,

I have a bunch of files that were backed up as part of an installation. Basically the backups have the original file name and extension with .bak appended.

E.g: images.dll.bak

I'm now trying to batch rename them to remove the .bak but I can't find a way to do this using find and replace functionality....As far as I can tell there's no functionality to trim a specified number of characters from the beginning/end or specified location in the filename...

Any thoughts?

Select all files, click on the rename button, change the "Old name" to *.bak and the "New name" to *

Bang on, how I always manage to make things harder than they need to be is beyond me :open_mouth: :smiley:
