  1. Change username in Windows Terminal Preview


    I downloaded the Windows Terminal Preview but put my Username different then the one in my folder and now when i type commands like

    "ls -al ~/.ssh", it tells me: " ls: cannot access '/home/lucasgoddamn/.ssh': No such file or directory".

    But i have the directory .ssh but just under '/user/.ssh'

    How can i change my name to user or how can fix my issue

    Thank you
