This is kinda tricky, as you are not renaming an extension, but part of of the actual file name. Your files aren't a ".srt.ass" type, they are still a ".ass" type. If you do want to get rid of the .srt in the filename, run these commands, or put them in a batch file.

Code:

ren *.ass *.
ren *.srt *.ass

I tested this method in Win XP and it appeared to work for me.
