X29-Renamer

kerryjw1: My main folder was only 16 characters including spaces so I am not sure why it was renamed? It removed 9 characters and added 001 at the end. We are not sure either but the program has been updated to v1.2 with another check to avoid touching anything under 31 characters. Thanks for your feedback. -Peter

While we are sorry for any files you say you lost, we can't imagine how that is possible. The program has been tested and used by hundreds of users and downloaded by over 2500 members at many locations and not one including the two developers and other consultants have ever reported this or seen that behavior. Since it only renames files and does not move them to the trash, it is still harder to understand. Personally, I would always test any product on a small folder of files to see how it behaves in your environment but as I said, your experience is unique and unexplainable. -Peter

Thanks for your positive comments but rating this a 1 on features because it only does 1 thing )but does it perfectly) is very peculiar logic. I see ratings based on how well something does what it claims to do. Since we only claim to do one thing, it would be foolish to expect it to do more especially since you said it does that one thing "VERY WELL". It would be the same logic in buying a powerbook and rating it only a 1 because it does not wash your cloths. :-)
