    Removing a prefix from hundreds of file names

    Hi, I want to change hundreds of files in my windows explorer file structure by removing the prefix (first 12 characters). Is there a way for an excel macro or something to do this?

    Look up a product called Renamer, it is free, and has a RegEx capability.
