Stupid Question - File Renaming

[VladtheImpaler]

Ok, I am dumb. I accidentally renamed 25 files instead of one, so is there a way to reverse this, or do I have to go through the files 1 by 1 and figure out what is what? Just to be clear, I now have 25 files named "Letter to mom (1)" - Letter to mom (25)"...

Since you're typing this, you've probably done something since you renamed the files but you could have undone the change with CRTL-Z.

If you're on a Mac using Time Machine you could revert to your last back-up of those files.

Otherwise I think you're going to have to rename them again. It's only 25 files. That's really not that many. 5 minutes tops.

Fantastic - thanks. I went back, selected them all, and CTRL-Z did the trick.
