Text in video:


You want to rename your
blackhol 0000.png to
blackhol.png and rename the rest
of your folders to the same.


You can do the select folder
right click copy select 0000
right click paste


But that takes to long


so we will click in the search

open the command prompt window


and type (where your snaps are)
