Redirecting
I can't rename folders in windows 10! [Solved]
There seems to be numerous threads out there asking this question, and all failed (except one).
Problem: Can create a new folder, and delete it, but am unable to rename it (in Explorer), rename from the command prompt seems to work fine. The problems also applies to network mounted drives.
This problems seems to be triggered by the removal of OneDrive from the system, and in particular one key in the registry.
Here is how I solved it; [Windows 10 Home x64 - your mileage may vary, caveat emptor etc.]
The problem is this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDescriptions\{A52BBA46-E9E1-435f-B3D9-28DAA648C0F6}
Check to see if you have it.
If you don't have it. . (for Windows x64)
Create a file called import.reg (using the text below) and import using
regedit (as
administrator obviously)
and then reboot.
Hope this helps someone
