Select all the photos in the folder. You can do that by pressing CTRL-A on your keyboard.
Only want to select a few images? Use the CTRL key on your keyboard to use the Control-
Select method to choose only certain images. Or, select all the images, and use the CTRL
key to deselect the images you don??™t want!
Right-click one of the selected images??”it doesn??™t matter which one??”and choose Rename
from the menu. Type a new name and press the ENTER key. Your pictures will all be given the
new name, with a number in parentheses so you can tell them apart.
If you really get into organizing your photos by filename, the Windows method may start
to seem kind of anemic. For beefier file naming, try a favorite program of mine: for just $10,
Name Dropper (cognitial.com/namedropper) lets you create a slew of name fragments and
assign them to a dozen customizable buttons. To rename photos, combine the fragments into
descriptive compound names. Or try Siren (www.snapfiles.com/get/siren.html), a free program
that gives you access to the metadata associated with your photos. You can combine snippets of
info like your camera model, ISO, exposure data, lens information, and date taken to create truly
informative filenames for your photos, automatically.
