Note
Until version 3.200 Daram Renamer used a nice icon set- Silk Icons but from version 3.300 the program uses a dull, monochrome icon set- Syncfusion Metro Studio Icons which is a pain for my eyes so I used version 3.200 for tests.
I opened an issue requesting an option to use the old toolbar icon set but it was rejected by the developer. For me the new toolbar icons are unbearable so I do not plan to update version 3.200.
Update check cannot be disabled in settings.
Daram Renamer uses about 60 MB of RAM on my machine (Windows 8 x64).
