How do I change/edit login name?

:)

 

Change Windows Login Name

"My ultimate goal is to have my name changed on my Skype account. Which reflects the name on my lock screen."

Apply Step 5 to change the name on your Local account which is appearing on login screen to the name on you MS account profile that you do want to appear.

However, the Skype name is separate from the MS account name if you are using the traditional desktop program. You can change the Skype name to match by opening Skype/Skype tab/My account which takes you to Skype account page. Click your picture/Skype alias/Edit profile on next page/Change name here/Save at page bottom. Good Luck

Login Name

Hi,


Sorry for the delay in response.

- What is a local account ?

Local account :

If you've ever signed-in to a home computer running an older version of Windows, you’ve used a local account. Though the name may throw off novice users, it’s nothing more than an account to get into the computer in front of you. It works on that computer and
no others.


If you are logged with Microsoft Account, than refer the below steps.
Follow the below steps to change your Account Name:

1. Click on the Start Menu and select Settings.

2. Now select Accounts.

3. Click on the Your E-mail and account tab.

4. Now select the option Mange my Microsoft account.

5. It will take you to web browser where you have to login into your account.

6. Once you login you can see on the left panel you will get an option as Edit Name.

7. Change your name and save the changes and logout of your account from browser.

8. Try to restart your system and then try to login to your system and check if the name is displayed correctly.
