How to rename the file with file size

[itkesavan]

Pleas help me with the command for renameing the file using file size (note: i want to skip the 0KB file).

Supply some more information.

Is this in a single folder, or a tree of folders?
Do you want "abc & def.jpg" to become "1,456,213.jpg" ?

Pleas help me with the command for renameing the file using file size (note: i want to skip the 0KB file).

If I understood you correctly, this is what you're looking for. This will rename all the files that are larger than 0 bytes.

for /R %t in (*.*) do if %~zt neq 0 ren "%t" new.*
pause

Or using a batch file:

@echo off
for /R %%t in (*.*) do if %%~zt neq 0 ren "%%t" new.*
echo.
echo.
echo   Done!
pause

/R switch is only necessary if you need to do this recursively. Of course, you can change the renaming to something other than "new", and the extension type instead of all extensions.

I asked a question on how you want the files named (and Night has provided you with an almost complete solution - it needs the filename format implemented).

Your description is not clear.

I got what night has said but i dont know where to give the folder location and file name

just tell you what i want

I have file in D:\test folder, inside this folder there are soo meny files, from that i have to rename abc*.txt (total 2 file) in this one file will be 0KB. so the script needs to skip the 0kb file and rename only the file which has data. hope now you got my request. please help me with clear batch script because the script which night has given in that i dont know where to give floder location and file name.

Thanks in advance

A big part of solving a problem is being able to describe how a solution would be found. That is way in the old school you would make a sketch of a logical sires of steps that would define the solution. After having made a concise logical outline. the coding becomes easy.

I don't think you are reading the replies.  If you look at different command's help menus you should be able to figure this out.  To see the help menus you need to type the command (Most listed in the 'help' command) with a "/?" following.  You will want to look up 'for','if','ren','dir'.  I have full faith in your ability to read and comprehend these commands.  I wish you luck, but know that the members of this forum do not read minds and cannot understand what you want without you asking.

This command line based on Night's code should work.

for %t in (d:\temp\abc*.txt) do if %~zt neq 0 ren "%t" "new name%~xt"

Please provide a good explanation in future and people might be more inclined to help.
If you look at your subject line and first post it looks like you want to rename filenames with the filesize.
