Command lines for moving and renaming files with new name input
To move and rename files with a new name input using command lines, you can use the move
command in Windows. Here's an example of how you can do it:
Open the Command Prompt: Open the Command Prompt by searching for "cmd" in the Start menu or by pressing
Win + R
, typing "cmd," and pressing Enter.Navigate to the Directory: Use the
cd
command to navigate to the directory where the files are located. For example, to navigate to the "Documents" folder, you can use the following command:bashcd C:\Users\YourUsername\Documents
Replace
YourUsername
with your actual username.Move and Rename Files: Use the
move
command to move and rename the files. Here's the syntax of themove
command:bashmove "<source_file_path>" "<destination_file_path>"
Replace
<source_file_path>
with the path and filename of the file you want to move and rename, and<destination_file_path>
with the new path and filename for the file.For example, to move and rename a file named "file.txt" to "newfile.txt" in the same directory, you can use the following command:
bashmove "file.txt" "newfile.txt"
If you want to move and rename the file to a different directory, provide the full path in the
<destination_file_path>
.Repeat for Multiple Files: If you want to move and rename multiple files, you can repeat the
move
command for each file. For example:bashmove "file1.txt" "newfile1.txt"
move "file2.txt" "newfile2.txt"
move "file3.txt" "newfile3.txt"
Adjust the filenames and paths as needed.
Remember to enclose the filenames and paths in double quotes ("
) if they contain spaces or special characters.
By using the move
command with appropriate source and destination paths, you can move and rename files via the Command Prompt in Windows.
