Organize Your Photos and Give Them Meaningful Names
ByHow many of us have folders of photos on our hard drives with cryptic letters and numbers that mean nothing to us!
The Windows XP OS has a cool and functional way to rename many files at once (batching).
1. Open the folder of images you want to rename. Highlight all the images in the folder by selecting Edit and Select All from the menu bar.
2. Right click the first photo in the folder and select Rename.
3. Enter a name that can describe every image in the folder. For example: Tracey’s_birthday_2007.jpg. Be sure to add the file type (.jpg is the most widely used for images).
4. Windows XP will then automatically rename all the files in the folder and number them in order.
Now get organized!
Thanks. I’ve been looking for this tip for years.
