That is certainly the case with file renaming; I've been a long time user of an old PCMag shell extension called MultiRename (see link at the end), a rather simple freeware utility that had an install/uninstall companion that made it pretty portable (just keep all file dependencies in a folder and move it wherever you need it). After my move to Windows XP Pro x64 SP2, I adapted to using the native awxRename (http://www.arniworld.de/downloads.htm) but although it's extremely powerful, it has a few bugs, documentation is scant (to say the least...) and PERL regex are not exactly what I call user friendly.
So here is the opening tender for suggestions on this kind of utility...
