Advanced Renamer is back in the game with version 4.20 and yes, it is packing some solid buffs and bug fixes.

Advanced Renamer is basically a boss-level file renaming tool, letting you rename huge file stacks in one go using 13 different methods including mass renaming.

The pattern window has been upgraded with a tag builder that simplifies configuring tag parameters and ensures modifiers and fallbacks are added correctly.

You can run it installed or portable, play for free, or grab a €25 license if you want to unlock everything, though most of the limits are stuff you will probably never hit unless you are going full hardcore mode.

What’s new in v4.20?

Pattern Window Upgrade

New Tag Builder added – configuring tags and modifiers is now way less grindy.

Bug Fix

Fixed an issue where the method list refused to load when double-clicking .aren files in Windows Explorer. No more broken launches.

Long Filename Support Buffed

Better handling for those ridiculously long file names. Yes, even those ones.

Script Method Update

JavaScript engine upgraded to a newer version, with smoother scripting, better performance.

New Script Parameters Added

app.readFileText() now supports optional index and count parameters. More control, more power.
