      I'm trying to remove an additional extension from a batch of files using command line.

      When using command line to remove the additional .jpg extension on Document.zip.jpg as so:

      ren *.zip.jpg *.zip

      It actually just makes the file type a .zip, so the actual name would be Document.zip.jpg with a file type of .zip

      I'm looking for a way to instead REMOVE the .jpg part of the name altogether.

      I'm really not great at command line save a few select commands that I use regularly. Is there a way to achieve this or do I need to move on to Powershell?

          So I don't think that'll do what he wants while being free.
