Rename "Applications (Parallels)" folder?

[CrimsonEgret]

I know this may come across as mundane, but cosmetically, a folder with both a space and parentheses in the name is unattractive, especially when interacting with the system in a shell. Is there any way to rename that folder, perhaps moving it to a sub-directory of another folder?

Alternatively, since I almost never use the feature, how can I turn off the creation of entries in that folder, and just delete it?

Hello, which folder you are trying to rename? can you help us with a screenshot of it please?

The folder (on Mac) I noted in the title of the thread - namely "Applications (Parallels)". For the sake of completeness, e.g.

I concur: when working with the shell and listing files (the "ls" command), having short file and directory names allows one to see more of them, i.e. on more columns. Excessively long names reduce the number of columns. A directory named "Applications (Parallels)", moreover, is exceedingly atypical in a Unix-based system: (1) it uses non-standard ASCII characters in a Unix directory name (what's with the spaces and brackets? spaces are the separator for parsing command lines, and brackets are used by shell scripting languages), which the shell must escape using backslashes, thereby making a mess on the screen; (2) it negates the logical sense of its own name, i.e. that "Parallels" should be a sub-directory of "Applications". So why isn't it? And how can I change the name of this directory, e.g. to Applications/Parallels? I'm assuming it is not hard-coded into the source code, so it must be configurable. Has anyone found a way to do this?

So, I submitted the request over 7 months ago, got a request for additional information, and then crickets. Any news from folks at Parallels, such as @DebasmitaM@Parallels
