Suppose we have lots of lots file in a directory and we need to rename of modify the extension of all the file, then renaming one by one is pain and not a good idea as well. In that case we can use ren or rename command on windows.

If we want to rename all the files in directory in one shot then we can use ren or rename command on command prompt.

Example:- If we want to rename all html files to jsp files of directory D:\pages\ then executes the command.

D:\pages>ren *.html *.jsp
