Right, so I have the problem of renaming a lot of files at once, as you can see in the image below there is a bunch of FLAC files with the same starting values but different ending names, I just want to cut off the first part of those names but leave the part that is different.

 

So say I had: "01  Tom Jones - Greatest Hits CD 2 - A Minute Of Your Time"

I want it to be: "A Minute Of Your Time"

Honestly you could have it done by now, and AFAIK there isn't a way to do it easily :/

Search for Bulk Rename Utility. It has a VERY messy interface, but few tries and you'll figure it out.
