I have a problem. I need to rename files in two directories. In one directory I know all the names of the files and what they need to be renamed to. In the other directory I'm looking for one file HWxxxxxx.acg where the x represents some number or letter. Also I need to check and see if there is a process running, and if it is kill it.

I need to run this all against a remote computer. Is powershell the best way to do this?

What if multiple files return when you search for HWxxxxxx.acg? How would you rename them? The same for the process you want to kill, you can get back multiple process object if you get them by their names (e.g multiple notepads), will you kill'em all?
