In case of renaming multiple file extensions to another, they suggested to type this command in cmd promt or powershell: ren *.(current extension name) *.(new extension name)
But what about to renaming multiple file extensions to nil or no file extension? How to replace this command *.(new extension name) ?
Best case scenario, you get the right regex command on the first try. Not super likely though, so it’s good to try it out with a backup located in a separate folder.
Worst case scenario: GPT is giving you a command with the -r switch and you apply it to the root. You’ll end up nuking the whole drive. Not super likely either, but it’s good to be able to understand this part of the command before running it.
The way I see it, GPT is the author, and you’re the editor/publisher. It’s your responsibility to check the book before publishing it.
