Select the commander and right-click on him/her to bring up the stats/inventory window. When you've got that window open, hit "r".

How does someone rename commanders for a game which has been running for 3 weeks??

A message returns saying the option is not available for this game... does this mean I have to wait until next game to rename my commanders or is there a file adjustment I can make??

As far as I know, there's no way to upgrade the old games to the new file format required for renaming. As you'll notice, renaming is now a part of game set-up options, indicating that this "option state" is stored as a flag within the games. Without that flag being on, there's no renaming.

Yes, you have to wait for next game. By default renaming is turned off so all games started before 2.08 will not have renaming enabled.
