i used WinHTTrack to download a webpage with a ton of pictures that i wanted. for some reason it saved them all as html files. when i rename them to jpg they work fine, but there are too many to do them one at a time. so i am wondering if there is a way to rename all the files in the folder, or change all the file extensions in a folder.
here is the web page, so you can understand why i cant rename them one at a time. http://www.image-dump.com/browse.php?y=1&x=1
thanks for any advice that i get.

Try CKRename from ComponentSoftware. It's free, feature rich and very powerful.

This is my tool of choice and has bene for several years.

Close, but actually it would be

rename *.html *.jpg

In XP, you should be able to just highlight all of them, rename one and the rest will follow.

pic.html -> pic (x).jpg

It works for me at least.

this program that SiN recommended for me a while back works great for batch renaming
