Hey!
I'm looking for a keyboard shortcut to open a file renaming window without changing the location. Currently, I do this by right-clicking and selecting "rename." I'd like to speed this up because I use this option very often.

Hello Widget,
You can set a shortcut key by opening the properties of the Rename command from the Commands tab of the Customize Toolbars dialog box.
