If you open STVD you will find the path of the workspaces under File > Recent Workspaces. Let's assume the workspace is called WRKSPC1.

Within that path you will find two files for WRKSPC1, one with extension .STW, and another one with extension .WED, in our example WRKSPC1.stw and WRKSPC1.wed.

To rename the workspace to e.g. new_name_2 you have to do three steps:

  1. rename WRKSPC1.stw to the new name, e.g. new_name_2.stw
  2. do the same with WRKSPC1.wed, in this case to new_name_2.wed
  3. open new_name_2.wed with a text editor, find there the line starting with title=ST Visual Develop (should be at the very bottom of the file) and change the filename there too, i.e. WRKSPC1.stw to new_name_2.stw

After that you can open STVD again and load your renamed workspace.

Does it answer your question?

Good luck!
