projectdir = 'path/to/the/folder';
dinfo = dir(projectdir);
dinfo( ismember({dinfo.name}, {'.', '..'}) ) = []; %get rid of . and ..
dinfo( [dinfo.isdir] ) = []; %get rid of subfolders if you want to
entries = fullfile(projectdir, {dinfo.name} );
numfiles = length(entries);
results = cell(numfiles, 1);
for K = 1 : numfiles
thisentry = entries{K};
% process information for thisentry
...
results{K} = ....
end

in what II posted above you would change newentry however is appropriate . the code i posted shows how to extract the base name the new20 part but excluding the extension and then shows saving to a different folder and with a different extension . You could easily instead do something like the same folder but with 'processed_' as a prefix or whatever is appropriate . fileparts to break the input name into parts then do appropriate string manipulation then put the result together into the output file name .
