I have to rename files in a directory that are pictures but use a number as the extension for a card system. The picture numbers are UID's that relate to individuals. I have been trying to do this in a Batch file but getting many errors. The file name look like this
00000.1
00001.2
00123.3
88001.4
12345.7
What i need to do is first strip the "." and change the extension to .JPG
so the first file would be:
000001.jpg
Then strip leading zeros only so i would end with
1.jpg
12.Jpg
or
880014.jpg
this will be added to a bat file or a ps1 file that Deletes all files from a directory to update with new files renames them then Uploads them to a new location. The first 2 steps and last step i have completed using robocopy. Would rename Item work? or does that only work on current directory. In which case the delete would delete the bat file calling it... Head hurts
