HCP Anywhere User Help
You use the Files page in the User Portal to rename files and folders.
These considerations apply to renaming files and folders in the User Portal:
•The file and folder names within each folder must be unique.
•HCP Anywhere does not allow certain file and folder names or certain characters in file and folder names. For a list of filenames, folder names, and characters that HCP Anywhere does not allow, see Naming considerations.
•When you rename a file, the original copy of the file is deleted and a new one is created. The original copy remains accessible from the User Portal. This deleted copy of the file keeps all of its old versions.
For information on viewing old versions of a file, see Viewing versions of a file.
•When you rename a file, all shared links for the file are broken. You can fix them by restoring the file to its original name and location or you can create a new shared link to the file.
For information on sharing links to files, see Link sharing.
•If you have any backup files or folders, they cannot be renamed. However, the folder that holds the backup files and folders can be.
For information on backup, see Backing up files and folders from your computer.
