The IP_SPEAKER(old) on the left is corresponding to the last folder on the right.
I want to change the folder name on the right to the same name as project name, but I cannot open the project as the result.
Why I cannot open the project after changing the folder name? Thanks
Andy,
You can't rename the folder from the file-system. Renaming has to be done from with CCS itself so that all references to the name of the project are also updated.
Here I have a project called LPG2 in my workspace. You can see the physical folder at the bottom part of the capture.
I then rename that project from within CCS:
After renaming the project in CCS you can see that both the project name in CCS and the physical folder are updated:
If you have manually renamed the folder then you have broken the linkage from CCS to where the project is located. The workspace in CCS has a list of their projects and locations. You changed the location. The projects files themselves also have many references to the project name as well.

Thanks.
Actually, I've done this before.
try to rename
folder's name didn't change
That's why I want to change folder's name directly.
Andy,
Ok that scenario is a little different then.
For the case where the project is located outside of the workspace then the project name and the folder name are not directly tied. So doing a rename from within CCS will change the name of the project within the project file and workspace but not the name of the folder. Manually renaming the folder would break the linkage to the workspace.
I would do it this way:
1) rename the project via CCS
2) remove the project from your workspace by right clicking on the project in CCS and selecting. Delete. Make sure to NOT check the box to delete the files from the file system.
3) rename the folder in your file system
4) import the project into your workspace. Make sure to uncheck the box to copy the project into your workspace.
Here I renamed and you can see the new name in CCS but not in the file system
Now I remove it from my workspace
I go to the file system and rename the folder.
Now I import it back into my workspace
Now it is back in CCS and pointing to the project in the new folder

Hi.
I switched workspace to the location where project is, therefore, from now on, the project resides inside the workspace(as image). Then I found my personal CCS setting is all gone(go back to default).
Then I decided copy files ".jxbrowser-data", ".metatdata" and "RemoteSystemsTempFiles" from previous location to the location where project is.
Although personal setting is back, but I still cannot change project's name directly from within CCS.
