Much like a web browser, refreshing the files (F5 or ctrl-F5 or Cmnd-F5, etc...) should refresh the list and contents within the file(s) as seen on your computer. Also, it is possible that changes were made to your admin file and not to your store file and through that all, the phpmyadmin database information was not committed. Why could it be possible to change one and not the other? The store includes/configure.php is typically made read only (permissions of 444) by the ZC software to prevent inadvertent modification. Without making it writeable (644) "changes" made would not be stored. Depending on your editing software, you may not have been alerted to that... also, because it hasn't been stated to you to modify the file permissions, I have a feeling that the includes/configure.php file was not actually updated with new database credentials. :/
Sorry I missed all the chaos that followed. Haven't really checked back to the site much today and after I received notification of the success, any further posts to this thread were not forwarded.
As to the foldername renaming, I expect RodG to chime in saying that this is possibly one reason not to worry about changing the name, though the entire situation does seem unusual. Really do hope that you have/had a backup of your database.
