What's new in this version:

- New arrow-down for renaming fields: shows recent entries (per-field), lets you manage recent entries, and offers “Insert Renaming Tag…”
- New “Insert Renaming Tag” dialog: searchable; shows all core tags, Windows properties, Item Date, hash tags, Documents/EXIF; plus PDF/MediaInfo when installed.
- Item Date and file-property tags now work without the option “Extract Windows File Properties”. That option is only needed to show Item Date as a column in the file list.
- Exif renaming tags now work without the option “Extract EXIF data”. That option is only needed to show EXIF data as a column in the file list.
- Exif metadata support added for more files: .dng, .heic, .heif, .avif; and common camera RAW formats .crw, .cr2, .cr3, .nef, .nrw, .arw, .sr2, .srf, .srw, .orf, .rw2, .raf, .pef, .rwl, .3fr, .erf, .kdc, .dcr, .mef, .mos, .mrw, .x3f, .bay.
- Windows File Properties cache: speeds up large batches; auto-invalidates on Refresh (F5), folder change, or metadata changes.
- Picture Viewer: support for more file types on Windows 11/10 -- .dng, .heic, .heif, .avif -- plus common camera RAW formats: .crw, .cr2, .cr3, .nef, .nrw, .arw, .sr2, .srf, .srw, .orf, .rw2, .raf, .pef, .rwl, .3fr, .erf, .kdc, .dcr, .mef, .mos, .mrw, .x3f, .bay.
- Auto Date (8): new syntax to specify a custom date format (e.g., YYYY, MM, DD, HH, mm).
- Optional additional file properties via DLLs for PDF files (e.g., Title, Author, Subject, Creator, etc.) and MediaInfo for video files (e.g., Format, Duration, BitRate, FrameRate, CodecID, EncodedDate, etc.). Use like any renaming tag with the new formatters; e.g., <(pdf:Title){default:Untitled}>, <(pdf:CreationDate) {YYYY-MM-DD}>, <(MediaInfo:Format)>_<(MediaInfo:Duration){int}>.
- Renaming Tags - new formatting options: chain formatters inside {...} on any tag (text/number/date). Key formatters: slice / slicere / slicenum, substr, replace/rsubstr, pad/padnum, int, len, group, math (+/-/×/÷/round), default, titlecase, upper, lower, trim; date patterns like {YYYYMMDD}.

Examples: <name{upper}>, <(#System.Rating){padnum:5}>, <counter{math:
- 1}>, <($System.ItemDate){YYYYMMDD}>
- New core tags: <counter>, <name>, <ext> (e.g., <name{slice:0:4}{upper}>, <counter{padnum:3}>)
- New JavaScript function parseTags("..."): parses and expands renaming tags, e.g.<($System.ItemDate){YYYY-MM-DD}{lower}>
- Added a button to easily make the detached renaming criteria and the main window fit the full screen
- Added more shortcuts next to the folder path bar (e.g., auto-size columns, auto-fit columns to width, reset)
