 For myself, even getting to the properties for an extant taskbar icon 
(preferably for a program not currently running, or it gets even messier) is 
like "going through your ankle to get to your nose."  I find it tedious under 
Win10 because you can't just bring up the context menu and have "Properties" 
right there, you have that miserable extra step of having to find the program 
icon itself, then choosing a submenu to open Properties.  Then when Properties 
opens, it's in the "Shortcut" tab, not the "General" tab where you actually 
would rename the shortcut itself.

This really comes down to what a given individual finds easier, and for myself, 
that's nuking the taskbar icon, (re)creating and renaming a desktop icon, and 
then pinning that said icon to the taskbar.  

There are probably 20 other ways to do this as well, as Windows has always 
given more ways to do any one thing than most people ever know about.

Chacun à son goût.
