Windows 10: How can I change my windows 10 pro log in name and also the name of the user in C:\Users ?

When the windows is loading up after restarting the pc and I need to type my pin number to log in above it the name of the pc is my email *** Email address is removed for privacy ***


and in the C:\Users my user name folder is rhoda





I want to change rhoda to Chocolade but when I click on rhoda it's making a short beep and if I make right click on it there is no rename option.





I also tried to go to the control panel > user accounts > user accounts and selected there the only account there is my account type admin but also there there is no option/s to change the name :





What I want to do is to change the log in name when starting the pc and windows load in the pin screen to Chocolade

and also to change the name of the user in C:\Users from rhoda to Chocolade

Change user name on c drive to match administrator name.

I just bought a new laptop as the hard drive on my old one died. It had two users, “John” and “Jane”. The computer store where I bought the new laptop named it John, but I want it to be Jane. I changed the administrator name to Jane and that works, however when I go to c /users it still list John: for example c/users/John and I want to change that to c/users/Jane. I have not been able to figure out how to change the user name to agree with the user name on the c drive. Could someone please explain how you do that on windows 10? Thank you.
