Use the “REN” command!!
REN *.EX_ *.EXE (note: there is a space in the middle)

EX_ files are compressed. Simply renaming them with RENAME still won't make them usable; you need to use EXPAND to decompress them.

EXPAND Source Destination
EXPAND -r Source
EXPAND -D Source.cab
EXPAND Source.cab -F:Files Destination

-r Renames expanded files.
-D Displays a list of files in the source.
Source Source file specification. Wildcards may be used.
-F:Files Name of the files to expand from the .CAB file.
Destination Destination file | path specification.
The destination can be a directory.
If the source is multiple files and -r is not specified,
then the destination must be a directory.

You just need to change the extension to .cab. Windows itself supports CAB.
