Are install shells ok to rename?

cormie · 2008-01-10 18:25:52

Hi, Very quick question, just wondering, I have quite a few install shells of various programs and just want to know does the name of the install shell have any bearing on the install? Is it ok to rename something like "wg511t_v4_3.exe" to "netgear card software and drivers.exe" or is dependant on the type of install shell…

Actually, I suppose I should keep the wg511t_v4_3 bit in the filename as well as a description just for future reference:)

Any feedback appreciated!
