I find it rather annoying that there is no easy way of simply renaming a file without knowing the extension. Any thoughts on how to easily rename a file using the “rename a file” action? Maybe a regular expression that easily identifies the file extension at the end of the file name?

Did this topic help you find an answer to your question?

I think I figured it out….

For specific file extensions:

\.(pdf|docx|jpg)$

For any extensions:

\.\w+$

Would be helpful for this to just be built into the configuration (preserve extension or change it) for this action, but I’ll take this. >:}
