how to convert mtimes to times?

how could I change mtimes and mpowers to times and powers ( * and ^ to .* .^) I mean the answer of my code has around 1000 numbers of mtimes operation now I want to chenge all of these mtimes (*) to times(.*)

Why do you want to do that? Both have their own specific purpose. Mimicking the result of one operator with the other will result in a very inefficient and less readable code.

I know ,but I want to use this answer in a new code which this code is numerical solving and it needs .* instead of *

If you want to brute force change them all, you can always use the find-and-replace of the editor. But this will very likely introduce a lot of bugs.
