I tried the Alt+N but nothing happens. Help!


Is any unit selected when you press Alt+N? This command is applied to selected unit.

You can install and uninstall many time has you want, but that won't change your issue. The problem is not with Panzer Corps, otherwise we all would have it.

Status: offline 		Thanks to all for trying to help. It's a real bummer because one of my main enjoyments is to rename the units based on historical order of battle. At least PC:AK starts with the correct OOB names already.

Status: offline 		I still think it's odd the game is working properly *except* for that part... so the usual way of a workaround would be; check/ replace keyboard, if not then -> reinstall keyboard software, if not then -> reinstall game. There also the very small chance that the popup, where you enter the new units name, is in fact a popunder on your system. So the window would be "under" your gamescreen. To check that you would have to click on the Window start key so the lowerwindow bar appears, it should be visible there.
