Two steps are mandatory and you have to specify search folders and enter words that need to be replaced. The other two steps are optional. So, in order to better understand mechanism of text replacement with AKS Text Replacer, let’s make an overview of all steps.
Step 1. You need to choose a search folder, i.e. a directory that contains files with keywords. In case you want to ignore certain folders, files and file types you may exclude them from the search. Such an option saves your time and makes search faster.
Step 2. Entering words, word combinations, lines of text, blocks of text etc. Be careful here, watch out for mistakes. If you wish you may create a replace group – a pair of words or blocks of text which you frequently use.
Step 3 (optional). If you have info on size and date of the files you may use this information to narrow search results.
