A quick screen recording could be very useful too

@crutkas I figure out why it was not working. I selected ~100 files in a folder right-click and than selected powerrename. But it probably registred right click for a folder not to selection. And in newly opened window it started to work when I selected all 3 - Folders, Files AND subfolders. Without this combination it wont show anything on a right side.
