how to change 1,000,000 in file names to 1000000

Wondering how to change the format of numbers in file names. Have thousands of file names that contain LARGE numbers but they are in mixed formats. For example one is "1,000,000thisfilename" and others are "1000000thisfilename".

I want the numbers format to match so listing them in order in Explorer works. Would prefer removing the commas.
Any help? Thx in advance

You can use a Regular Expressions rule to remove all commas that are surrounded by digits.

Here is the rule configuration:

Expression: (\d),(\d)
Replace: $1$2
