Supported File Types

Supported files

Batch Text Replacer can modify any file that is text-based. Typically it can be used on files like:

Text files (*.txt)
CSV files (*.csv)
XML files (*.xml)
Web files (*.htm, *.html, *.asp)
Source code (*.cpp, *.h, *.dpr, *.pas, ...)
Scripts (*.vbs, *.js, ...)

Unsupported files

Batch Text Replacer is capable to replace strings in any file, also binary files of any kind. However, we discourage you to try to replace strings in files where the change of the content, or the length of data can cause unexpected results. This mainly concerns the following types:

Executable files (*.exe, *.dll)
Database files (*.dbf)
ZIP files (*.zip)
