Error when trying to bulk rename files

Book format azw3
Previous actions:
Split two files into seperate files for each chapter.
Tried to rename all the new files.
Error log just said txt file"blah bla" could not be renamed.

Able to bulk rename after splitting like this on an epub file.

Is it related to the format? Or, is there another reason it will not work?

It is because the AZW3 format does not support internal filenames.

IIRC the error message should mention that.

Thanks eschwartz.
I can stop trying to find a way to do it - the book works so why did I worry?
Must be some kind of syndrome!
