Rename file extension for all files in folder

Help StudioX
,
1

Hi All - I have a folder of files with an unusable extension (a third-party) saved these files like this. I need to rename these files as .pdf files so they can easily be opened. I have the sequence, for each file in folder path, rename file ‘current file (including path)’ to new name: using the notebook file tab - this was unsuccessful, it renamed the first file as ‘untitled document’ then would not move forward. Any suggestions?

Hi @audra.swope ,

Please check the attached xaml. Kindly let me know if it works.

Thanks,

Hi @Anjani_Kapoor - I was unable to open the file, maybe because I am using StudioX and not Studio. Are you able to send me a screen shot or send the file in StudioX format?
