How to batch add new text or symbols in the middle of filenames

When renaming files, a clear and standardized file name helps you quickly find the files you need and avoids management confusion. In some special cases, we may need to add a fixed letter, number, or character after every character in the file name. Although this method is not commonly used, it can greatly improve the efficiency of file management when needed. For example, to protect file privacy or prevent files from being quickly searched, you can insert certain fixed characters into the file name for protection. Additionally, when multiple files are placed in the same folder, subsequently added files may cause duplication or overwriting issues. If extra text, letters, or characters are uniformly added to the file names, each file name becomes unique, thus avoiding conflicts between files. Although this file name processing method is rarely used, it can effectively solve file naming difficulties in special scenarios, and proper operation can effectively enhance the professionalism of file management. So, how can you uniformly handle a large number of files that need to have the same letters, characters, or text added in bulk after the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, or any subsequent character in the file name?

1. Use Cases

When processing files named with phone numbers and personal names, the numbers and names may be connected without separation, making them inconvenient to view. In this case, you can batch add the same text characters after the phone number in the file name to separate the phone number and name, making the file name more intuitive and easier to manage.
