Can Anyone Help Me Refine My Script

[Toppy 0]

Hi, I have the following script which renames files in current dir & subdirs.

However I would like it the also rename in deeper directories.

Like when I run it from D:\ so it also renames files in D:\dir1\dir12\dir123\dir1234

Can anyone help me refine it please ?

i wrote a script a while back that listed all of the files in a tree recursively. you could easily read in that list and then change the files listed... there are a few other solutions already made that you could easily tailor to your needs. do a search in scripts and scraps for recursive file search and you should find a post with 10-20 recursive solutions

Hi, I've searched and found some scripts about recursive searches but it looks all chinese to me, I have

no clue how to implement it in the script above.

Haven't tested but this doesn't look right:

if IsDirectory($file) Then

shouldn't that be?:

if IsDirectory($dir & "\" & $file) Then
