| Post subject: | Mass image mover/renamer type thing |
I'm trying to transfer 15k+ of my dads images onto an external HDD, lots and lots of them have the same image name, but aren’t the same photo, so when copying them onto the hard drive it keeps asking me whether I want to overwrite them or not, so I have to press no, but there’s no option for No to all, and its going to take too long to sit there pressing no.... So is there any tool to change the file names when duplicate images are found? Or anything along those lines?, Cheers |

i had to do the same once but i just selected all of the photo's (in the same folder) clicked rename and then you can rename them all at once (numbers are added automatically), did that for every folder and then added them together, renamed them all again. but for 15k of photo's that would be a bit insane  
have you tried google yet?
