RoboTask forum

Hi ! I couldn't figure out how to do this but I guess that must be easy to do! All I want to do is to rename all subfolders in a specific folder by adding [ before the folder name and ] after the folder name.I mean "Folder 1" should be "[Folder 1]" after the task. Can you guys help me on this? Thanks a lot ...KK

It's possible. See task below.
save the text of the task into file and use menu "Task | Import" in order to import into RoboTask

The sorting of the list is necessary (between the loops), because we need to rename the folders from bottom of folder tree to top.
First loop retrieves the folder tree and second loop renames folders from bottom.
