Ren2Title

Ren2Title is a small-sized application capable of renaming files using titles defined in their tags. It features a backup option and other advanced settings that can be tackled with ease.

The entire program's packed in a single executable file that you can copy to the hard disk or to a removable storage unit, in order to seamlessly run Ren2Title on any machine without previous setup. It doesn't need DLLs to run or add new entries to the Windows registry. However, it auto-creates and updates an .ini configuration file to remember your settings, so make sure you're not launching the tool from a read-only device.

The interface is user-friendly, made of a standard window that shows the app's status regarding the progress, current file's name and HTML title, along with statistics, namely total accessed, not renamed files and those renamed by the user, as well as read, title and backup errors.

The program is able to process a single HTML or a directory with multiple webpages at the same time. It automatically does this when pointing out the items, so the options must be customized beforehand.

For example, the renamed files can be backed up by always creating new backup directories, copying files that weren't renamed, and overwriting any existing files when encountering same name conflicts. The tool can be instructed to parse HTML entities and rename files to the .htm extension, as well as to write log files for errors and renamed objects.

It worked smoothly in our evaluation, without causing the OS to hang, crash or indicate errors. CPU and RAM consumption was minimal, so it didn't hamper system performance. Thanks to its intuitive options, Ren2Title can be easily handled.
