How to automatically rename folders?

Question

Windows

There is a list of matches between old and new folder names, the list is very large. Tell me, how can I quickly rename folders in Windows using this list? It can be presented in any format. Maybe someone knows an automated means to do this?

Answer 1

Batch version for files in the same directory and file names are not template:

chcp 1251
for /f "tokens=1,2 delims=<тут подставить символ TAB>" %%a in (file.txt) do (
    ren "<имя каталога>\%%a" "%%b"
)

put the list of files to be renamed into the file file.txt and put it next to the batch file. file.txt must be in 1251 encoding. File.txt format:

<имя исходного файл с расширением><TAB><имя результирующего файла с расширением>

The file names must not contain the TAB symbol
. Substitute the appropriate values ​​in the script instead of comments in angle brackets.
Depending on the form in which you can provide a list of files, you can remake the script.
The script has not been tested.
