Ok, I have another one. Here I am about to remove the preceding Parentheses from 2400 files. How would you do this with mp3tag. Of course mp3tag is essential, as it is a _tagging_ program which Bulk rename is not. Don't you see that this is fundamentally intertwined with my original question here? You are prompting me to get off the thread. But this is the thread. So if there is a way to do this better with mp3tag, how would you do it? It is not the same at all is it. Removing a parenthesi. I would have to probably .. ( ??? I don't even know how I would change the file names, as there is not a little list of string veriables inside the drop down context in the filename-\>filename. It is not something I would choose to do in mp3tag. However, it is impossible to do it in bulk either, when the different names are as widely varied as seen in post #5 here above. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/remove-parenthesis-from-filenames/62706)._
