I want ot remove from actual filenames
(e.g. IMG-20181126-WA0074, IMG_20181120_102648, VID-20181124-WA0045)
the stringes IMG-, IMG_, VID-.
I tried as explained in the instructions using the "replace" method.
I inserted the command: "<IMG->\<IMG_>\<VID->" in the first line an nothing in the second line.
Unluckely the result was that the whole names get cancelled: the new names was just athree digit sequence (_001, _002, _003 ecc).
How can I save the rest of the file names just without the stringes as IMG- ecc
(e.g. 20181126-WA0074, 20181120_102648, 20181124-WA0045)?
Thanks for helping me.

Angled brackets are only used for tags.

Replace: IMG_\IMG-\VID-
with: nothing

should work.
