How do I change the path of the Thunar directories

Im having a problem with the names of my directories in Thunar.

Basically, the directory’s path by default were in Russian, but since I’ve changed them in to English, it throws me an error because it still refers to the path with directory’s name in Russian.

Is there a way to change the path to the directory?

In the sidebar, right-click видео and select Remove Shortcut. Then in the main pane, right-click Videos and select Send To > Side Pane.

If the sidebar shortcut still does not work as expected, you may need to edit this file:

/etc/xdg/user-dirs.defaults

Reboot after saving your edits.

Also, this information might be useful:
