I'm looking to rename a bunch of MP4 files in a specific way. I need to search for the term "part" followed by up to three digits (like "part 1") and cut that segment out of the file name. Then, I want to insert it at the beginning or end of a new name while keeping the rest of the original name intact. I've been trying to figure this out, but I've had little success with rewriting the names while maintaining the original format. Any suggestions?

You might want to check out a GUI application instead of using PowerShell or regex for this task. PowerToys has a feature called Power Rename that can handle exactly what you need, and it even allows you to preview changes before applying them. Super user-friendly!
Totally agree! PowerToys is great for both personal and work use. Plus, it has other useful tools, and if you're in a company setting, you can manage these features through group policies.
