Abigail's Media Renamer
v0.9.22 — updated 29 July 2026 — Free for Windows
From chaotic downloads to a beautifully organised library — automatically. Abigail's Media Renamer scans your files, pulls in rich metadata, and renames everything exactly the way you want it. No manual editing. No guesswork. Just a clean, structured collection you'll actually enjoy browsing.
It handles movies, TV shows, music, audiobooks, eBooks, and comics. It fetches artwork, enriches metadata, routes files by genre or quality, detects what's missing, and can even download what you want automatically.
