    C user false name


    Hello I have a problem. My friends C drive is called ₽ (russian currency symbol) for some reason, so some of the games or programms do not recognize it and they give out an error as they wont find path to it. We have tried to change it but nothing works. I was wondering if she will hard reset her PC which will wipe put her data, will she be able to name her C drive again or will it stay the same ?

    For now PC reset is the best one as we tried many other thing.

    How do I get user name back for Win 10? User Account empty

    May I show you what came up in my user account list below?

    It shows my admin account 'run as admin with MS account'; however, I set up that local admin account w/o MS Account. I can get into my system settings, etc now. Can I change to MS Admin Account and will this change it back to the original MS Admin account, which is alright with me, and then create local standard account? Or will I still need to do your suggestions? I will do your suggestions - not familiar with doing, and uncomfortable doing so.
