# Change Worker Properties

This tool can be used to change the following properties of a Worker or Worker base class:

* A Worker's class name. Changing this property will change the Workers name in the following places:
  * Class filename will be renamed
  * Class folder (on disk) will be renamed
  * All references to the class and its VIs/typedefs will be relinked within the scope of the project
  * All class object labels on all VI front panels (within the class) will be renamed
* A [Worker's Alias](/workers-tools/workers-tools-menu/create-add-worker.md#worker-alias) (not available for Worker base classes)
* A [Worker's Icon Header](/workers-tools/workers-tools-menu/create-add-worker.md#icon-header)

{% hint style="info" %}
**Good to know**

The Worker's Icon Header text is a tag stored within the class's XML file. It is used to write text on the name of scripted VI icons, such as a Worker's Launcher VIs, etc.
