Hi,@Dani_S. Welcome to Microsoft Q&A. Renaming an existing ZIP file in .NET can be done using the System.IO namespace to handle file operations. The File.Move method can be used to rename a file by specifying the current file path and the new file path.

Here is a simple example demonstrating how to rename a ZIP file in .NET:

 public void Rename()
 {
     string currentFilePath = @"C:\...\file.zip";
     string newFilePath = @"C:\...\newfile.zip";
     try
     {

         if (File.Exists(currentFilePath))

         {
             File.Move(currentFilePath, newFilePath);

             Console.WriteLine($"File renamed from {currentFilePath} to {newFilePath}");
         }
         else
         {

            Console.WriteLine($"The file {currentFilePath} does not exist.");
         }
     }
     catch (IOException ioEx)
     {

         Console.WriteLine($"An I/O error occurred: {ioEx.Message}");
     }
     catch (UnauthorizedAccessException unAuthEx)
     {
         Console.WriteLine($"You do not have permission to rename this file: {unAuthEx.Message}");
     }
     catch (Exception ex)
     {
         Console.WriteLine($"An unexpected error occurred: {ex.Message}");
     }

 }
