Renaming a synced folder
HartomoYes have had the same problems and ended up with a folder called Thing I Want (2) which refuses to be renamed. I don't want to update the Sharepoint shared folder, just to rename my shortcut link to it to what it should be.
It's clear that the folder name on my side is not the same as the Sharepoint folder because the Sharepoint side doesn't have the "(2)" part on the end so why does an attempt to rename the folder automatically attempting (and being refused) to change the Sharepoint side rather than just the (already differently named) local shortcut folder?
Probably possible to delete the syncing and start again to get the normally named folder, but with all the syncing taking days at a time and risk of deleting the online version when you clear the (you think) detached local folders it just begs the question: How can we change the name of the locally synced folder?
Thanks for any tips for how this can be rectified.
