I feel like an idiot because this should be drop dead simple like it was on
XP but I can't figure it out on Vista. Anybody know how to do this?

Hello,

I've found a workaround: Export the task, and re-import it, and then you can
rename it.

Greetings,

Thanks for the work around. It kind of bites that renaming a task isn't
simpler though.

Hello,
yes, I agree completely. This would be a good suggestion for the next
Windows.
