Hello,
I try to use the serialize option but in descending order.
Folder
SubFolder_01
Or. Name > New Name
File_A_0001 > File_A_0005
File_A_0002 > File_A_0004
File_A_0003 > File_A_0003
File_A_0004 > File_A_0002
File_A_0005 > File_A_0001
SubFolder_02
Or. Name > New Name
File_A_0001 > File_A_0005
File_A_0002 > File_A_0004
File_A_0003 > File_A_0003
File_A_0004 > File_A_0002
File_A_0005 > File_A_0001
SubFolder_03
Or. Name > New Name
File_A_0001 > File_A_0005
File_A_0002 > File_A_0004
File_A_0003 > File_A_0003
File_A_0004 > File_A_0002
File_A_0005 > File_A_0001
In the lite version I do not find a Ascending Descending Order option.
The name column do not respect the subfolder structure.
Thanks
Best Regards

Hello,
To serialize in descending order, you simply specify a negative Step parameter, for example "-1". However, if you have different number of files per subfolder then you can't start at a fixed initial value.
Instead, why don't you sort in inverse order by Path column and then serialize in the usual ascending order with automatic resetting of the serialization index if folder changes, like shown below.
Note that I have prefixed new names with "_" to avoid conflicting new names. You can remove it in a second pass.

Thanks !!
A negative Step parameter do not work, the result is
File_A_0001 > File_A_-0001
But order by Path column work well.
Thanks a lot.

A negative Step parameter do not work
For a negative step to work as you expect, you need to change the "Index starts" option to a higher number, for example "5" if you have exactly 5 files in a folder. So it would go from 5 down to 1 in steps of -1. But this would be useful only if you have a fixed number of files in each subfolder. Otherwise the reverse sorting by Path column would work best.
