Could someone hook me up with a script that will go through a folder substructure and rename a specific folder and continue through until there are no other folders to process? Basically search for folder "a" and rename to "b"

Example of what i need done

Code: Select all

BEFORE:
c:\Root_Folder\script.bat
c:\Root_Folder\Folder1\
c:\Root_Folder\Folder1\random_folder1
c:\Root_Folder\Folder1\wrongname_folder2
c:\Root_Folder\Folder1\random_folder3
c:\Root_Folder\Folder1\random_folder4

AFTER:
c:\Root_Folder\script.bat
c:\Root_Folder\Folder1\
c:\Root_Folder\Folder1\random_folder1
c:\Root_Folder\Folder1\correct_folder2
c:\Root_Folder\Folder1\random_folder3
c:\Root_Folder\Folder1\random_folder4

in a loop so that it can process a ton of these.
