That's what I did, but I had to check that all the setting are the same (paths, VSS configuration, etc.). This is an unlike-IDEA process that is also error prone. vote...
Maybe, I'm not sure (maybe there's some reference in the project's files to its name) - can anyone from JetBrains say? In any case, the right way to do such a thing is from within the IDE, not by renaming files, hence my enhancement request.
I think the only thing you have to do is rename the .ipr and .iws files to the name you want (keeping the extensions naturally). I just tried it on a project of mine and it worked fine. To be sure I checked the files and the name of the project was not stored in them.
i think you can't rename a project. but it's a good feature for the next version!!!

you probably could have created the new project and then copied your old project files over top of the new one. Then deleted the old one.
Which ones? Don't these files contain the project's name?

I was thinking you could create a new project junk
then copy old.jpr to junk.jpr and copy old.iws junk.iws. I have never tried this but that could transfer all your settings.
I have successfully renamed my .ipr and .iws files many times. Does that do what you want?
