Yes, with DropIt you can also rename and move your files with a single process.\\
You only need to correctly configure an association with "Rename" action.

===== Example 1 =====
**This is an example of association that adds the image Date Taken at the beginning of my photos and moves them in a defined destination:**

Name: ''Move and Rename my Photos''\\
Rules: ''*.jpg''\\
Action: ''Rename''\\
Destination: ''C:\Example\Of\Destination\%DateTaken% %FileName%.%FileExt%''

For more info about abbreviations (the special words between % percentage symbols) you can read:\\

===== Example 2 =====
**In this second example the names of my documents are capitalized and separated in folders by their Date Modified:**

Name: ''Capitalize and Sort my Docs''\\
Rules: ''*.doc;*.docx''\\
Action: ''Rename''\\
Destination: ''C:\MyDocs\%DateModified%\%FileName#+++%.%FileExt%''

For more info about abbreviation modifiers (in this case the ''#+++'' string) you can read:\\
