Default Rename RSS Feeds Folder

I recently installed Outlook 2007 Beta 2. During the startup/configuration
of Outlook, the default folder in which RSS Feeds are stored was created.
Unfortunately, I already had a folder named "RSS Feeds" (from an add-in to
Outlook 2003), so the newly created folder became "RSS Feeds1".
I've since removed the old folder and would really like to rename the new
one to simply "RSS Feeds", but I can't seem to find a mechanism to rename it.
I can create a new folder and store all RSS Feeds in it, but the new folder
doesn't pick up the context of the RSS Feeds folder, so I don't get the
right-click menu, etc.
Anyone know of a mechanism to rename the RSS Feeds folder?

Default Rename RSS Feeds Folder

Yes. Uninstall. Move, delete or rename .pst file. Reinstall.

I imagine "RSS Feeds" will be one of the 'default' folders that will not be
renamable as the product gets closer to release.

Default Rename RSS Feeds Folder

try the start up switch of /resetfoldernames - if it fails, follow William's
advice.
