I have a folder full of sub folders and files which are named using Hebrew encoding (Windows XP – Windows-1255).
I now use Windows 7 and I want to convert all file names into UTF (Native Windows 7 which supports Hebrew characters).
Is there a tool to do so automatically?
Pay attention, I'm not after converting the internals of the file, only its file name.
Thanks!

Background
What is needed to be done to fix this is to find some way to automatically know each of these Gibberish characters which Hebrew character they were before being getting that way.
I compiled to such lists of characters. I've seen both kinds of corruptions, sometimes it was using one set and sometimes the other. Here are both sets (and here it is pasted in separate rows, which is needed for what we 'll be doing: Set 1 and Set 2):
Got it Fixed!
To actually rename files and folders, I figured out an easy way to got this done using Bulk Rename Utility
