How to change file extension of various files at a time?

I had got a virus in my computer. It changed the file format of many files like jpeg to ocx or jpeg to htt and jpeg to ini.etc.


Now,how can i change these extensions at a time not by changing these one by one?|||On Windows XP and later versions of Windows, it is possible to rename multiple files at once via Explorer by selecting the files to rename, then pressing the F2 key.





100% free is

Its main features:

Use of images EXIF info

☼|||If it changed the file formats, you need conversion programs to convert them back. If it changed extensions, you can just rename the files. (In a command prompt, ren *.ocx *.jpg will rename all ocx files in the directory to jpg.) The file extension *indicates* the file format, it%26#039;s not the same as the format.





Be careful - if there are real ocx files in the directory, their extensions will also be changed - which you DO NOT want.
