I need to input filenames into command prompt for commands. To date I either manually type the filenames or copy and paste by calling up the file's properties tab and copying the full name.
Here's a generic example:
move file_name_1.txt whatever_name_i_want.txt
So I need a method of quickly inputting this "file_name_1.text"
What are some other methods that could be used? I can use forfiles to display all the files in the folder, isn't there some kind of number calling I can substitute for the file I want or something short and easy. Like ideally a dnd, would require some other shell type which is fine, or some callup command I could use that could tie into things.
