Launch Windows Explorer (or local equivalent)

Select the file in question, wait a short while (to avoid double-clicking it), then click on the filename again.

It will then become possible to type in a new name, or edit the existing one as if it was a Windows standard text-entry box.
Hit Enter when you've finished and Voila!

In older versions I don't recall. But older versions wouldn't let you have a name that long anyway, so no matter.
