  1. changing username


    I have installed a fresh copy of windows 10 Pro on a brand new computer, made sure all updates and drivers were downloaded and installed. the system runs great, however, when I changed the name of the user from "User1" to admin, the system reboots and gives me windows errors everytime I boot. if I change it back, it appears to work fine ?????

    :)
