Re: How to rename a file and move it to a different drive and directory
You ask if the user-defined tags are worth trying. If you can reduce your processing from 3 to 1 steps, then it will go three times faster. And with 63k files to process, this could make it worth while.

With the user-defined tags in place, all steps are combined together with the following argfile:
