Rename File
The Rename File object is used to rename files on the local file system.
How it is used

Configuration
To configure the Rename File object you need to know the file that you are renaming and the name that you are changing it to.
Details tab
 
File
Type the path of the folder that contains the file that you want to rename. To rename all files in a folder, type the path and use wildcards in the filename portion of the path.
To include sub-folders, check the Include sub-folders check box.
Old name
Type the old name of the file (without the path), or insert a Published Data item.
New name
Type the new name for the file (without the path), or insert a Published Data item.
Advanced tab
 
File age (days)

no age filter – rename the file without considering its age.
is less than – rename the file if it is less than n days old. Type the number of days in the field to the right of the drop-down list.
is more than – rename the file if it is more than n days old. Type the number of days in the field to the right of the drop-down list.
Note: The age filter counts from 12:00 a.m. of the day on which you perform the operation. It does not count from the current time.
