Cost and feature difference
Fast Folder Rename Lite is FREE to try. It will expire after a certain number of executions, so if you like it please purchase it. The PRO version costs only US$14.95 and has recursive renaming, which allows you to rename all the folders in the existing folder(s) that you drop.
Lite - Rename folders dropped only. Eg if you rename a folder called "C:\My Documents" ONLY that folder will be renamed.
Pro - Rename folders up to infinate directory levels deep. Eg if you rename files in "C:\My Documents", ALL folders in "C:\My Documents" will be renamed as well, eg "C:\My Documents\My Music", "C:\My Documents\My Pictures",
, etc will be renamed. This will save a lot of time if you have lots of subfolders and need to rename them quickly.
You can try Fast Folder Rename Lite edition for FREE. If you like it please purchase the PRO version. This software can be purchased online from the software store here.
How drag and drop works in the program
Whenever a drag and drop operation is performed, a structure of type HDROPINFO is passed on to the application
where the drag and drop operation is carried out. This structure includes information on the type of object being passed,
how many of these objects are there, and so on and so forth. Fast Folder Rename extracts information from this structure,
and process each folder one by one. The actual renaming is done by calling a Windows API function.
How it was implemented
Software used:
- Visual C++ using MFC with Windows XP pre-release headers for Visual Styles support (for coding)
- Windows 98/2000/XP beta (testing platforms)
- Microangelo (icon design)
