Our Popular File Name /
Attributes Handling Software
Just Got Better with new
version 3.1 and added features !
Basic Applications
A convenient bulk file name change / or file attribute changer
. . and more. To change a number of file names
or attributes quickly, ensure all of the files are in the same directory. Then let filemod change the
names or attributes at very rapid speed.
Changing only one file? Filemod contains an "only one" feature also. In newer versions,
such as 3.0, filemod
also will provide file name lists, a unique file delete command, and also
help on writing over private deleted files.
MANY
USES:
Renaming Digital Camera Photos
Digital Cameras are great! However, they of
course don’t know the event they are being used at. Use filemod and “make sequence” to change the names of those
files in bulk from a camera photo number to “Europe2002_001”, for example, where
the “001” on the end is the number of the photo. The event name can come in front of the sequence number,
after, or both (the "both" option is shown above.) for more click on:
Photo rename example
File Name Change Case
Filemod is able to change case of a directory of
file names (or nested directories) to either all small letters, all capital
letters, and even title case (capitals at the start of words for the name, and
small letters for the file extension). More on this by clicking
here.
File Name Modify Capabilities
Ever wish to slightly modify directory file
names after the fact in bulk? In directories or even nested directories?
Filemod can do some of that. Filemod contains a more powerful file name change
agent - a find and replace routine. This function can be used to find certain
characters in your file names within a directory and change them to other
characters. For example, it can modify all spaces " " in your file names to
underlines "_", or do the reverse of that, or even change a name to another.
This find and replace works on the whole name plus the extension, such that even
extensions can be modified by this, one type at a time. More on this by
clicking here.
CD Rom Disks to Hard Drive
Storing CD rom data on hard drives is a great
way to save data. However, when read back to hard drive, those files annoyingly
may be marked “read only” and not be able to be directly modified later.
However, filemod can change those files rapidly to “elim most readonly”, which
does not affect system files, or “read all”, which makes ALL files in that
directory read and write. Read-only
example
Hard Drive to CD Rom Disk
When saving data from your hard drive to a CD
disk, some CD burners will not accept file names over a certain number of
characters - such as 60. Yet if some data is saved, such as emails, data names
on your disk can exceed that length. It is tedious to shorten every file name
one at a time. Filemod can shorten file names to any reasonable length you
specify rapidly. file name shorten
example
Making Important Archives Read Only
Do you have files you wish kept as they were
- with no new changes? Put those files under the same directory and let filemod
change those files to read-only.
File Extensions
A number of programs will not modify file
extensions - the ending three letters such as “doc” or “txt”. This program
will. The file extension may be modified one at a time using the “only one”
option, or can be modified in bulk in a directory by using the “extensions”
option. file extension example
Firewall Assistance - File Name
Scrambler
Concerned that someone could get through your
company or home’s firewall and get to important business files? Those business
files may be overlooked by a thief if they simply do not have a rational name
associated with them. Filemod includes a file name scrambler / de-scrambler
that can modify file names based on your simple alphabetical coding. Filemod
also modifies some extension endings, including: .doc, .txt., .pdf, .htm, .html,
.xls, .ppt, .exe, .bmp, .jpg, .gif, among others. In addition, filemod will
also modify file attributes to hidden or unhidden - following the normal windows
conventions of those attributes. More on this by clicking
here.
Dead Files
While thankfully rare, file names can become
corrupt to the point where the names are no longer legal and sometimes windows
operating systems will not even allow them to be deleted. Isolating those files
in their own directory and using "make sequence" will usually allow the file to be
modified or deleted later. Note - if one cannot move the file to its own
directory, consider moving the other files in that directory temporarily out -
if at all possible. Then use filemod.
File Name Lists
Ever wish to be able to copy or save file names from a directory to another
windows program? With filemod you can. Files can be listed and
then copied or saved three in different
formats: file name only, file name plus extension, and path and whole file
name.
file directory lists example
Create Directory Files (privacy application)
Many of us are aware that if we delete files and even empty the re-cycle bin
that part of the file still stays on our computers. If we wish to remove
those deleted files one simple option is to write over them with new files. Filemod has a special control screen that can do that - for most reasonably
sized hard drives. It can write over the open space to make files in that
space non-recoverable.
file shredder example
Delete Files (but not directories)
While all windows computers that we have seen come complete with "file delete"
functions, we have noticed that on deleting very large directories of files
(such as those that can be created above) that it can bog down - and perhaps
never leave the thinking mode and start. "The delete directory files"
function of filemod finds and deletes files
by finding and deleting them one at a time - automatically of course.
This filemod delete function therefore can come in handy prior to using the
standard windows delete. Also if one wishes to delete files but save the directory
structure, this feature is also an excellent option.
delete files example
Attribute Changes
The attribute change "read only" is discussed above. However, filemod will
also change attributes of files for: hidden, archive and system attributes
- either one at a time, or whole directories at a time.
system-archives example. Some of these
applications are becoming hard to find in other programs. You can also
simply remove all attributes from a file or a directory of files.

Limitations and Cautions
The program will modify files for names and
attributes, but not the directory names or attributes. The program is a
powerful one, and one must exercise caution over and above the safeties to
ensure that the files in the directories to be modified (and directories nested
inside of those) are correct. Renamed files may not be recognized by programs
or operating systems after the modification.
Program Safeties
Safeties are optional, but begin in the “on”
position. The safeties are for (1) ensuring only one directory looked at, (2)
Asking on first change out and (3) not changing system files. With care, the
first safety can often be turned off in order to do multiple nested directories
at once. It is suggested to leave the other two on. However, that is your
option.
