How can I import batch methods created with versions 3.6x - 3.7x to v4.21?
I have tons of individual batch methods that I created with Advanced Renamer using versions 3.6 up to 3.78. How can I import those methods to version 4.2.1?
Thanks in advance for any and all help. :)

Hi D,
When I converted from 3.95 to 4.01 I didn't have any real problems, but there are a couple catches:
The Attributes method is gone. If you've used it in your methods you will need to remove it (although I can't swear that ARen won't just ignore it).
As we've gotten further away from 3.x some of the methods have changed in some way. There MAY be problems in the conversion of some other methods, but I don't know what those would be. Kim would be one to answer that.
You didn't say what happens when you try to load method batches into 4.x; please provide more information. If you haven't tried it, just download a portable version 4.x and give it a shot...
Miguel? Styb? Kim? Anything to add?
Best,
DF

Thank you for taking the time to reply. :)
What I should've specified was that I was trying to import all of my old batch methods *at once*, but that was never possible - somehow, I confused myself about AR's features.
So, everything's working as it should (except my memory, I suppose, haha).
Once again, thanks for your help!

Hi D,
Happy to help (if I indeed did... sounds like you were basically there).
