Do you mean download or upload here?
Renaming a file on the user's computer isn't possible, if you mean renamning it on the server, then why would you want to do that?

Is it possible to track when a user has completed downloading a file using download()?
Is there a way to track when a user has completed a file upload? I want to rename the file after the upload is complete. Is there a way? I couldn't find one.

If a user uploads a file to your app then handling uploaded files is described here: https://laravel.com/docs/12.x/requests#files

@wim91 Your post title talks about downloading, then your post body talks about uploading. Which is it?
