  2. Change user name on c drive to match administrator name.

    I just bought a new laptop as the hard drive on my old one died. It had two users, “John” and “Jane”. The computer store where I bought the new laptop named it John, but I want it to be Jane. I changed the administrator name to Jane and that works, however when I go to c /users it still list John: for example c/users/John and I want to change that to c/users/Jane. I have not been able to figure out how to change the user name to agree with the user name on the c drive. Could someone please explain how you do that on windows 10? Thank you.

    If you desire a name change please do the following:

    • Ask yourself if you really need a name change.
    • Make sure you have a good reason.
    • Know what you want your new name to be before you request a name change.
    • Send Urlyin a PM containing a decent explanation of your reason as well as your desired name.

    Change the Default C:\Users\[name]

    Hi Callie,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand the inconvenience you are facing. Let me help you in resolving the issue.

    According to the issue, you want to correct the name in your file path, as it is different from your account name as well as system name.

    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if that helps:

    1. Make a local account first with the name you want, then sign into a Microsoft account.

    2. Open your C: Drive and then go to the Users folder. Check if you see the other account there.

    3. Delete the account and then change your Local Account into your Microsoft account.

    Keep us posted on Windows related queries and we will be happy to assist you further.
