I have a few hundred episodes (300), now it gets all jumbled I put them, it's like 1 then 10 - 19, then 2 - 29, then 3 - 39, and so on. I could just make 99 different rename methods but that's too time-consuming. I am also not doing it separately because I have more than one series/seasons, so it adds up to huge manual labor.

So, is there a better way to just add 0 to 1 - 9 and 00 to 10 - 99? (without manually putting the first 99 first separately)

Thanks!

Your question doesn't really make much sense!

However I assume that you have an index number at the beginning of each filename that you wish to pad with zeros to 3-digits.

If so then use the Renumber method...

Number position: 1
Change to: Relative to existing number
Number difference: 0
Zero padding: Manual
Number length: 3

Thank you so much, it did the trick even though I couldn't explain it properly! And I can just make the number length: 2 if the episodes don't exceed 99.

Thanks again! You're a lifesaver!
