How To Rename Files And Folders In Windows 11

In this video, I will show you how to rename your files and folders In Windows 11. If you have recently upgraded to the Windows 11 operating system and attempted to rename a file or folder, you may have noticed that that the UI (User Interface) when you right click on a particular file or folder has changed. It may not be obvious to you immediately as to where the rename option now resides. It wasn't for me, hence this video. I will also be showing you a second method to rename more quickly using a keyboard shortcut.

Steps To Rename Files And Folders In Windows 11:
1.Right click on the file or folder that you wish to rename and you will be greeted with a menu of options
2. At the very top of the menu, you should see five icons at the time of recording of this video. The five icons are as follows from left to right: Cut, Copy, Rename, Share, Delete
3. Click the Rename icon, the third icon from the left.
4. Delete the current name of your file or folder and enter a new name
5. Press Enter on your keyboard once you have renamed your file or folder.

Steps To Rename In Windows 11 Using A Keyboard Shortcut:
1. Left click on the file or folder that you wish to rename
2. Press F2 on your keyboard
3. Delete the current name of your file or folder and enter a new name
4. Press Enter on your keyboard once you have renamed your file or folder.
