There are a few steps that can be taken to resolve this issue:

  1. Close Pycharm and open the project folder in File Explorer.

  2. Navigate to the .idea folder within the project folder.

  3. Open the misc.xml file.

  4. Look for the line that reads: <component name="ProjectRootManager" version="2" project-jdk-name="Python 3.8" project-jdk-type="PythonSDK">

  5. Change the attribute "project-name" to the new name of the project.

  6. Save the file and close it.

  7. Reopen Pycharm and open the project from the new folder name.

This should resolve the issue of Pycharm not being able to identify the project after changing its name.
