Rename a File

You can change the name of a file, which is useful if its current name does not accurately describe the file’s contents. By giving your document a descriptive name, you make it easier to find the file later.

Make sure that you rename only those documents that you have created yourself or that have been given to you by someone else. Do not rename any of the Windows 8 system files or any files associated with your programs, or your tablet may behave erratically — or even crash.
