Okay, so what I would like to do is rename a folder based on the file that is inside it, so that the name of the folder matches it.

I will be applying this to my collection of movie backups. I have already run the files through a program that matches the movie with the dates, so they are all in the format <Movie Title> <Date>, and I would like the folder to reflect that.

You cannot rename a folder based on one of the files inside it. But what you can do is to move the files to a folder based on the file names. Use the Move Batch Mode and use the tags in the new folder path edit box to customize the new folder name. If the folder does not already exist, it will get created.
