    Hi organman

    If you right click on a tile and choose "open file location", it will show the shortcut, if you rename the shortcut it will update the tile accordingly.

    Hi organman

    Unfortunately you don't get the 'open file location' option with system tiles..... I omitted to mention that.
    You only get the option with non system tiles.
