    Hi,

     you might export the solution, unpackage the zip file, update solution.xml (right at the top - there is uniquename and localizedname)

     Package as a zip file again, and re-import.

    Hello Alex,

    Will that impact on any other thing,

    second point on which instance to import this solution.

    It won't (unless you make some changes in CRM before re-importing that copy, in which case you may override those changes once a copy has been imported).

    Does not really matter which instance (but I was assuming you'd be using the same one)

    Basically, imagine you have your original solution as a zip file. Now you have a copy of the same solution as a zip file - it has all the same customizations. You could have created that copy manually in CRM if you wanted to by adding all the same components, but it would take longer.
