Renaming a Windows directory

[Dimitri Yioulos]

I need to preserve a Windows directory as "directory.bak".  I was hoping this might work, but it doesn't:

- raw: c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe rename C:\directory C:\directory.bak

Is there a way to accomplish what I'm looking to do?

Thanks

I found the solution:

- raw: c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe  /C rename C:\testdir testdir.bak
