Why rename OneDrive songs
There are several reasons why you must rename songs on your OneDrive cloud drive. The most popular ones are as follows:
Organizing your music list
Organizing your music helps a lot when it comes to scrolling through the entire list to find just the track you want. If the tracklist is unorganized, you will have to spend a good amount of time looking for the right track, which can be a bit frustrating. Therefore, this is why renaming OneDrive songs is so handy.
Removing Website/ Promotional Text
It is often observed that when a music file is downloaded, it contains the website’s name (for promotion). This can prove quite troublesome later on as most of the time you will not be able to find a particular music file just by its name. You will have no other option except simply playing the music files to find the actual file you have been looking for. In such cases, Cloud File Renamer will help remove any unwanted text from the filename and allow the user to change as they wish.
Here is the whole procedure described in a very easy manner.
Step 1: Sign-Up to Cloud File Renamer
Visit the Cloud File Renamer website and sign up for an account. You can either use the super convenient Sign up with Google and Sign up with Microsoft buttons or even use the Create an Account button.
