How to rename a directory by using the command prompt

How can I rename a directory using the command prompt?  Say I want to change c:\Users\User c:\users\user utilisateur\Mes Documents documents.  How can I do this?

I looked in Google.  Here's what I found.

G:\data>mkdir dir1
G:\data>dir /b
dir1
G:\data>rename dir1 dir2
G:\data>dir /b
dir2
G:\data>What would I write for the data? And what would I write for b?
C:\docs>ren c:\docs\1.txt 2.txt
C:\docs>dir /b
2.txtPlease give me an example.Rod Computer

OK, I fixed it.  I did go in safe mode, go to documents, right-click on the file, select Properties, security, advanced, owner and change the owner.  And that's all.

They don't call me computer Rod for nothing!

Thank you

    This is not a trivial process for non trained. Also note that open a command prompt does NOT give your son of additional privileges unless he knows the password for an administrator account.
    Please note that if you skip any step then you may have a machine that won't start longer.

  • Need help to fix a computer using the command prompt

    So, my computer has suddenly crossed an escalation of alarming events, culminating with a very desperate, me trying to get information on the "Command Prompt". I don't know why, how, and it's all heart-wrenching. If someone has an idea of what could be done to fix it, I'd certainly eternally grateful to them. I will try to be as detailed as possible, so I don't miss information that might be useful for someone who know how to use.

    I have an Acer Aspire V5 - 573G, running under Windows 8 64-bit with a 12G RAM, about 1 year and a half old, and this is the story of his unexpected collapse.

    3 days ago the computer suddenly began to show extreme problems with the help of any program. I had let him sleep for a few hours, and when I came back all started running very slowly.
    At the beginning I'm not too worried about I have mostly ran programs dependent on Internet and thought it was a simple connection problem. I have conducted a malware check (which I use quite regularly anyway) and downloaded Avast to see if he could detect all viruses, but everything was fine.

    However, after that them stopping and turning back on the morning, things only seem to be deteriorating. I was not using my computer much at all, but after the second day of the fight with all that I realized that in Task Manager, something was really wide, and the drive was 100% use even when nothing was running.
    Usually, after a few minutes it would go back down to 1-2%, but as soon as I ran whatever it is, even simply open Control Panel, happen very quickly to 100 times (sometimes the Task Manager was sufficient to make this happen).

    I removed Avast and tried to delete the process when I made sure it was safe to do so, but it did not work. I tried after tutorials on the Internet for people who reported similar problems, which led me on a desperate journey funny through Windows Defender removal, an (unnecessary) extreme increase virtual memory (which I brought to the standard after that report maybe just made even slower computer), something to change the parameters of High-Performance mode so that the Hard Drive would never turn off has tried to stop the search and indexing in my session, make a small altar to Turing... nothing worked.

    I ran a chkdsk /f C: who found problems with indexing files / indexed and likely fixed, because when I ran simple verification once the computer has been again this topic found no problem. However, the situation was the same: essentially constant use of the disk of 100% and no way out.
    A sad moment, after hours of attempts, I stopped by mistake the wrong process, explorer.exe. I restarted the computer, and then the problem was still there, at least explorer.exeseemed fine.

    However, when a few minutes later, I rebooted the computer, even once, I couldn't access the desktop more and I found myself in a loop of reboot attempt that has nothing, attempted to retrieve an earlier version of the system but nothing happened.

    The only thing I can do is access chkdsk to see what the problem is, but I'm not sure that I could see a way out of this, even if there was a. The only thing that seems clear is that there is a lot of damaged clusters, that he can't solve.
    This morning I ran 2 other chkdsk /f c:, the results by saying that there was no problem and no further action was required.
    So I ran a C: /R, and once again he told me that there are some clusters damaged in this file.

    Is there something I can do? Someone has an idea of what could have happened?
    My idea was to wait for it to perform this check, run a chkdsk /f /r c: and see how it goes if I restart it, but I could really use advice from more experienced and skilled people.

    The computer has not received any physical damage, not even in the relatively distant past of her young life. Before he started having all these problems he did nothing particularly requiring either, just running a few innocent Assassins Creed II (with 11.9 available RAM for what I remember stats and a Nvidia GeForce GT 750 M, I think not that it should have been a source of so much distress). This is the first time it gives me problems.

    Also, I apologize if any information was unclear or confused, but not only am I a tragedy with computers, I also use a computer in a different language and a few technical terms could have been translated a little too big. If someone needs more information, I can do my best to give it.
