Upgrading when admin folder's name changed?

Ok I changed my admin folders name, but now when I try to upgrade it says such and such file does not exist under the original folder name. So my questions are;
Do I rename the folder to the original "admin" temporarily or is there a file in the install itself that I can alter to make it recognize the "newer" location? And if the later which file should I alter? Thanks ^^

It says " * /admin/includes/configure.php does not exist"
I'm currently using another name for that folder (going with the security suggested to do so) so i know it does exist, just not sure how to make it recognize that. I'm trying to go through the upgrade installation at the moment ^^;

OK, When doing EXACTLY what?
Are you just trying to do the DB upgrade?

oh lol sorry ^^;; I'm using the last "F" version just trying to upgrade by the current one "G". Not needing a DB upgrade as far as I know just a basic one. I uploaded all the changed files and the installation files for upgrade just wondering if I should rename the "admin" folder to admin (cause I changed it) so that it'll recognize the path to the file it needs to find, etc. It's telling me not found during the part where I'm trying to run the install.
