    Open the pic and select "go to gallery" Click on the pic again in that and it should bring up windows live photo thingy, with a menu on the right, select caption :)

    I have tried that Zigs but I typed the name in the box but it would not go on the selected pic, may be I didn't do it right so I'll try again.

    You can actually Rename every photo in a file. Select them all. Then Right click to get rename. Type in the new name and it will rename them all as Your choice 1, then Your choice 2 and so on.
