    Hello
    I have noticed that some of my files have as author, my name while others have the name of the PC which is, us. Why are they different and how can I change them to be the same? Does it make a difference as far as sharing goes.
    Thank you

    :)

    Search by app authors in Store

    Hi,

    I think it would be great to make the app author's name in Store clickable, so that it would be possible to view all apps by the same author.

    What do you think?

    Document author is for information purpose only and has no bearing in actual access or sharing permissions. The document author property is set by the program that creates the document. You can change it by right clicking on the file from File explorer, select properties, then the details tab. Just click on the author name and it should allow you to change it.
