Ozgur I literally love this - I rename all the images I save & then the documents on top of that, organise my desktop about 4x / week - Seriously need & want this - What a tool!

Sounds like a great tool to clean up messy desktops and folders.

I'd wish I've got this 10 years ago ;) Anyway it's super useful nowadays and I'm more than sure many makers will be super grateful with this. Wish you all the best!

Hahaha, finally a way to get rid of those random number file names! 😆
