I weight the issues of cost/complexity/frequency of use before I take on new software. I’ve generally avoided add-ons as I try to keep things as vanilla as possible to forestall problems. UPDATE: see Quick Look: A Better Finder Rename. MPG: I have not looked into these products, but a quick look suggests they are vastly superior to the macOS Finder. They’re not free like the Finder feature, but are vastly more capable. The ‘Big Mean Folder Machine’ is also a good app when managing large hierarchical libraries: With this automation, you can rename thousands of files in a few minutes. It’s great for OCD file organization.(After using it in trial mode I was impressed enough to buy the ‘Forever Upgrade’ a number of years ago, and have benefitted ever since.) NameChanger is a free Mac program for bulk renaming of files. I have used it for normalizing many filenames (thousands at a time) from disparate sources, along with folder names. It’s a fantastically-capable batch processor. I think including the word ‘Finder’ in the app name makes it sound like it’s some sort of extension. If you don’t already use it, I highly recommend ‘A Better Finder Rename’:
