Rename multiple files in a folder, add a prefix (Windows)

Question

I\'d like to batch rename files in a folder, prefixing the folder\'s name into the new names. i.e. files in C:\\house chores\\ will all be renamed house chore

Answer 1

Based on @ofer.sheffer answer, this is the CMD variant for adding an affix (this is not the question, but this page is still the #1 google result if you search affix). It is a bit different because of the extension.

for %a in (*.*) do ren "%~a" "%~na-affix%~xa"

You can change the "-affix" part.
