Can't rename folders

Hi,

I stick with the problem to rename folders. I can click on the Add Folders button and select the folders but after confirming the selection no folder appear in the selection field. I use windows 10 pro and have an antivirus software called bitdefender. Within bitdefender I explicitely allowed renamer to change folders. Some of the folders I like to rename have a data procetion in the properties view of the folder and some don't.

As this is a very important feature for me I really hope that you can help me to resolve the problem.

Many thanks.

Martin

Re: Can't rename folders

You need to adjust the Filter Settings and enable the "Add folders as files" option.

Also, when renaming folders, make sure to sort in reverse order by the Folder or Path column in order to avoid conflicts.

See the relevant article for more information:
