In case of renaming multiple file extensions to another, they suggested to type this command in cmd promt or powershell: ren *.(current extension name) *.(new extension name)

But what about to renaming multiple file extensions to nil or no file extension? How to replace this command *.(new extension name) ?

    To rename multiple file extensions to have no file extension, you can use a wildcard character to match all files with the current extension and then replace it with nothing (an empty string). Here’s the command you can use in Command Prompt or PowerShell:

    For Command Prompt:

    ren *.(current extension name) *.

    For PowerShell:

    Get-ChildItem *.(current extension name) | Rename-Item -NewName { $_.Name -replace ‘.(current extension name)$’, ‘’ }

    Replace “(current extension name)” with the actual extension you want to remove, and this command will remove the extension from all matching files

    Idk if it’s accurate but that was it’s response to OPs input
