So, these folders were uploaded as resources? Not into an Assignment or anything, right?
I haven't tried this in Win 7, but under XP, you could get a simple DOS batch file that would run to do the renaming of files inside a folder. I found it years ago somewhere on the web.
Probably, all you really have to do is rename the 36 folders to something meaningful & then attach a prefix to the filenames within that connects them to the particular folder.
Or get an intern to sort all the files out
