About the Text Cleaner Tool
The Text Cleaner strips unwanted characters from file names using configurable options. Unlike a simple find-and-replace, it lets you target entire categories of characters — all symbols, all numbers, all extra spaces — with a single checkbox toggle.
Five cleaning options can be combined freely: Remove symbols strips @, #, $, %, parentheses and other punctuation. Remove numbers strips all digits. Trim extra spaces collapses multiple spaces into one. Spaces → underscores replaces spaces for filesystem safety. Lowercase everything normalises case.
Flexible Combination
Enable any combination of options. Want to keep numbers but remove symbols and lowercase? Just check those two boxes. The live preview instantly shows the result so you can fine-tune before downloading.

Frequently Asked Questions
What counts as a "symbol"?
Anything that isn't a letter, number, space, underscore, hyphen or dot — so @, #, $, %, &, (, ), [, ], {, }, !, ?, etc. are all removed.
Can I combine options?
Yes! Enable any combination. For example, "Remove symbols" + "Lowercase" cleans special characters while normalising case, but keeps numbers and spaces.
Does it change file content?
No. Only file names are modified.
Are files uploaded to a server?
No. Everything runs in your browser using JavaScript.
