How to add the same prefix text or suffix text to all file names in multiple folders

The induction and arrangement of files cannot be ignored all the time. When there are multiple folders with different formats of files that need unified management, it is easier for us to add the same prefix or suffix text to the file name. It can quickly identify the file type and content according to the prefix suffix, helping us to easily find the file and accurately classify it into the corresponding folder. When the number of files processed is too large, adding the same prefix and suffix to the file name can make the file more clear at a glance, eliminating the tedious process of sorting and summarizing. The following describes how to quickly batch add the same prefix and suffix text or numbers to the file names of word, ppt, excel, pdf, txt format files in multiple folders.

1. Use Scenarios

add the same text, numbers, symbols, etc. to the front or back of the file name. Batch addition is also supported when the number of files is too large.

For example: apple.word, banana.pdf, orange.pptx

you need to add hello-to the left of the file name and -2025 to the right.

Add hello-apple-2025.word, hello-banana-2025.pdf, hello-orange-2025.pptx
