I'm trying to remove every dots between 2 words
Hi.MY.NaMe.Is.txt -> Hi MY NaMe Is.txt This is my method of doing it List Replace a. -> a(space) b. -> b(space) c. -> c(space) (It continues till the alphabet "z") Case sensitive - Unchecked Use regular expressions - Unchecked Could anyone remake this method but more efficient? |

Unless you have filenames containing non-text characters, why don't you simply replace "dot" with "space" using the "Replace" method? |

I should have gave a better example. Here is what I'm trying to do My.App.V1.2.3.4.zip -> My App V1.2.3.4.zip Notice how the dots between the numbers that determines the version of the archive doesn't get affected. It's about preferences plus I want to learn more about "Advanced Renamer" because I'm using it frequently |

Replace method with Regular Expression... Replace: ([a-z]+)\. With: \1<space> Case sensitive box not selected (otherwise use ([a-zA-Z]+)\. In theory (\w+)\. should also work, since \w = Word character = [a-zA-Z] However, in ARen, \w also seems to select digits as well. |
