Batch remove numbers from filename

[Spiv]

Hi all,
I have a directory with 100+ pics and many have numbers either at the beginning or at the end.
The numbers are all different....
Is there a way to do a batch rename that filters the numbers?
I'd be happy to run it twice to remove numbers from the front and from the back of the filename.

Thanks and
Keep smiling

You can remove numbers with a "regular expression" (reg exp) in "Batch Rename" tool

You can see that {Filename} is used for the first step,
then numbers are found with the regular expression [0-9]
and these numbers occurs from 1 to 5 times : {1-5}
and they will be replaced by a X .. or anything else you'll choose.

Before processing, check the whole list for new names, because sometimes some files will get the same name (or nearly the same name : see the file testX_02.jpg ) or incorrect names.

And if you find regular expressions daunting, you can get Rename Master which is the best out there for any renaming jobs including adding something in the case of collisions as @michel038 pointed out. This is one for the toolbox even if the instructions above covered your issue. He also has a clipboard manager which is also great. The are free and portable (donation ware but no nags)
