Windows 8 batch change or add file suffix method

The specific method is described as follows:

The Ren command can be used to modify the name of a file, including the suffix name. For example, to rename the 1.jpg in the D drive to 2.png, just type the following command at the command prompt and press Enter.

ren D:\\1.jpg 2.png

Note that if the prompt permissions are insufficient, then you need to run the command prompt as an administrator.

If you want to modify the suffix name in bulk, you can do this with wildcards. For example, the command to change the suffix name of all files in the D drive to jpg is:

ren D:\\* *.png

If you only want to type a file (with the same suffix name) Modify to another type, for example, change all jpg file suffixes in the D drive to png, the command is:

ren D:\\*.jpg *.png
