MS access: renamed form still uses old name when opened or referenced

Time:06-26

I have a form in which I had a typo in the name. So, I renamed it in the navigation window with right click, rename. When opening the form, the old, wrong name with the typo is still showing in the tab. Also, if I try to reference the form with the corrected name, access tells me the form does not exist. The form displays the correct name in the navigation window, but not when opened.

Navigation Window:

Tab when opened:

Would be great if someone knows how to fix this. Sry for the ugly naming.

Working solution given by KostasK in comment section:

It appears you haven't changed the actual object name, but its shortcut name given in the custom group. Change grouping to object type, rename and then group.
