Maybe this will help you a bit.
Code in the workbook module.

- UpdateCF_AppliesTo_FromNamedReferences — scans conditional formatting rules and, where it finds a formula that contains a named range, updates that rule's AppliesTo to the named range's current RefersToRange.

- Detailed comments, usage examples, and safety notes inside the module.
