Indexo

Trying to organize your messy collection of pictures or songs can be quite frustrating, not to mention time-consuming, even if you just want them to be fitted with proper names. As such, you can rely on specialized applications like Indexo to set renaming and sorting rules for both files and folders.

Since there’s no setup involved, you can go ahead and take the application for a spin as soon as download is done. This enables you to have it stored and used directly from a USB flash drive in case you need it on other computers. What’s more, it doesn’t make any changes to system registry entries, thus not putting stability at risk.

You start off in the application’s source directory, with a variety of navigation options. There’s a panel to help you easily go to a location of interest, including to refresh drives automatically. The selected folder shows content in a separate panel, and you get to select the files you want to target.

There’s also the possibility to work with folders, leaving files with the same name tags. You can select all items at once, or only those you want to modify. Renaming rules are handled in a separate panel, with a default option to only add numbers. You find quite the variety of options to customize how the files get renamed.

Indexing can either be done using numbers or letters. You set the starting character, and can even modify the steps. You can include a suffix to be added to all files. Format options make it possible to change the details to keep or remove from the name, which also include ID3 info gathering, thus greatly helping you organize song collections.

Bottom line is that a collection looks a lot better when fitted with appropriate names, and makes items easier to identify on the long run. Indexo manages to live up to expectations, letting you set various renaming and indexing details for both files and folders with little effort.
