MS DOS script or .Net Script to rename a list of sub-folders

Hello

I am looking for a MS-DOS possible or even VBScript or .net script that allows me to rename all Sub-Folders in a specific folder having AAA in their name into sub-folders with BBB.

Thanks

Luis Pérez

Try this in VB.net:

Imports System.IO

Private Sub RenameFolders()
    Dim startFolder As DirectoryInfo = New DirectoryInfo("c:\your_parent_folder")
    Dim subfolders() As DirectoryInfo = startFolder.GetDirectories("*AAA*")
    For Each subfolder As DirectoryInfo in subfolders
        Dim newDirectory As String = subfolder.FullName.Replace("AAA", "BBB")
        subfolder.MoveTo(newDirectory)
    Next
End Sub

Open in new window

Hope that helps.
