Hello,

Can some one help me with below two request.

1. Copy the folder name to File name and running number  
e.g C:/folder name

current file name "file1.mp3"  
expected file name "folder 01.mp3"

1. Move leading number to back side  
current file name "01 file.mp3"  
expected file name "file 01.mp3"

Thanks!  
Best Regards  
SRW

1. Convert \> Tag - filename  
Pattern: %\_directory% $num(%\_counter%,2)

2. Convert \> Filename - filename  
Old pattern: %1 %2  
New pattern: %2 %1
