Renaming Files, but new name doesnt sync

Question

Hi,

I have renamed all my files but the new name is not synced on the other end to everyone who I have shared the files with, it still shows the old file name.

Ive even tried removing their access and then sharing the folder with the new renamed title.

Any suggestions?

Cheers

Renaming a shared folder only affects your copy of the folder. Any member can rename or move a shared folder and it will not be renamed or moved for other members. This is so each person can manage the files in their own account as they see fit.

In order to share the folder with a new name you would need to create a new folder with the name of your choosing, move the content from the old folder to the new folder, and then share that folder with the intended recipients.
