    Microsoft account name change not working on laptop

    Hi Nathan,

    There might be some conflicts on the settings of your PC and your Microsoft account. We would like to ask some questions for clarification:

    • Did you follow the steps provided on this
      article       to change the name of your Microsoft account?
    • Have you tried checking if there available updates for your Windows 10?
    • When you said that "when I log on to my laptop the user account is still showing the old name", are you referring on the sign-in screen name?
    Regards.
