While reading the EPiServer 5 SDK documentation, i found this:

Rename a Folder

There is no Rename method on the EPiServer.Web.Hosting.UnifiedDirectory class. To rename a folder you need to call the MoveTo method as follows:

1.  
2. protected void RenameFolder(string path, string oldName, string name)
3. {
4.     if (IsFolder(path))
5.     {
6.         UnifiedDirectory directory =
7.         System.Web.Hosting.HostingEnvironment.VirtualPathProvider.GetDirectory(path) as UnifiedDirectory;
8.  
9.         int e = -1;
10.         while (path.IndexOf(oldName, ++e) > -1) ;
11.  
12.         StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
13.         sb.Append(path.Substring(0, e – 1));
14.         sb.Append(name);
15.         sb.Append("/");
16.  
17.         directory.MoveTo(sb.ToString());
18.     }
19. }
20.  

What a convenient way of renaming a folder Good thing that you don’t have to do it too often.
