This is a simple one.
Simply hold the Alt key and click the trackpad/mouse when you're hovering over the file you want to rename. This brings up a file menu with options, one of which is 'Rename'.
As the menu hint suggests, to rename a file you can also click once on the file in the Files window, then hold Ctrl+enter.
Thank you!!!
ReplyDeletei highlighted a gba rom file and held ctrl+enter for about a minute or so and it didn't let me rename it
ReplyDeleteThe command is not available when multiple items are selected. Is there no renaming for multiple items? That is insane!
ReplyDeleteYes, it is Insane! I take photos for a living. Sometimes 1000 per day. There is no way I am going to rename that many photos I photo at a time. If there isn't a way around this, than sorry Google. This Chromebook is going back. I will have to purchase a new PC instead.
ReplyDeleteIs this really true? No way to rename multiple files in one shot? I would be really greateful for a good solution....
