# Windows : rename your files with special characters

1. First of all, to access this function, you need to download this Microsoft application : [PowerToys](https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/xp89dcgq3k6vld)

2. Once the application is installed, go to the **Leviia** folder as shown below :

3. Next, go to the folder where you wish to modify the characters.

In the "Apply to" section, select "Filename Only" from the drop-down menu. Then in **Search for**, put a dot (to find dots in files) but you can also put another special character like $ (depending on which one(s) you want). Then in the **Replace with** box, you'll need to put a underscore (or dash). Then click on the **Apply** button at bottom left.

This gives you :
