Which folder do you need to rename? Do you have sufficient rights to do so?

There are some folders that if you rename it then some programs wont run right. Everything on your computer has an electronic "path" it follows to access certain files. By changing the name you interupt the path, thus leaving you with 1 or more programs that wont run right because that path is not what it used to be. Your computer is programed to protect itself.
