Hey, very very good program btw.

I have v2.37a, and was wondering how do I remove the (Feat. artist) from my filenames.

I have tried using the replace action and entering (Feat. original part and with the replacement blank and it succesfully removes the first part.

However I'm looking for a way to run this action that will remove (Feat. artist) for all the filenames in the folder, ie. by selecting them all and running this action.

I have searched the forum and saw another post which said try using (.\*) instead, although this did not work, maybe it was for an older version..?

Could you please please tell me how to remove (Feat. artist) as a whole so I only need to run it once over all the filenames?

Thanks for your help 🙂

You may try this ...  
Create an action group **Remove ' (feat. abc)'**.  
Create an action:  
Action #1:  
_Action type:_ **Replace with regular expression**  
_Field:_ **\_FILENAME**  
_Regular expression:_ **_(feat._)**_;Note: There is one blank before the star._  
_Replace matches with:_

[] case-sensitive comparison

Thanks very much, that worked perfectly, plus I was able to make an expression to remove (Remix) [Remix].
