Renaming file

There is a bug in Windows that sometimes leads to program freezing when OC asks Windows to rename a file or folder
Several workarounds have been implemented but since I can't reproduce this issue it is not certain which one will fix the problem
To apply workaround open: Settings>Advanced and in Experimental section you will see
Rename freezing workaround section

DON'T check "Rename files through Explorer dialogs" as that one has issue with paths longer than 240 characters and suffers from famous "Renaming..." that sometimes takes 10 seconds in Explorer

The default is "0", you can try "1" and "2" which give Windows 2 seconds and then will abort the operation (better than freezing program indefinitely) and then it will try renaming through Explorer
