I use it all the time on Windows. Why? First, you have to select the file you want to rename, than you have to click on file name (and not the icon), and if you double click while the file is selected it opens the file, and if you click once on file name you get 'rename'. You can click somewhere else to turn 'rename' off. Maybe, you will disagree wiht me but, this is one of 3 'small' features I really miss. Thank you.
