Hi

• Under view, select large icons.
• Go to User Account.
• Click on Manage another account.
• Select the User Account for which you want to select the password.
• Click on Change the username.
• Click on Change Name button.

Hope this information is helpful.

 

How do you set up a password in Windows 10, if you have never used one?

You should be able to click Change, leave the "Old Password" empty (blank) and put in a new password in the two bottom boxes.

If that doesn't work, I would suggest this alternative instead:

• Open Command Prompt
• Type echo %username% and press Enter (this will reveal your true username on the next line)
• Type the following and press Enter to change the password to
  
  net user alanrosenbaum NewPassword!
  
  Replace "alanrosenbaum" with whatever username you got in step 2.
  
  Replace "NewPassword!" with whatever you want your password to actually become.

That's it.

 

I changed my windows username, password stopped working

If your user doesn't own any EFS encrypted files, then you can use this approach:

1. Create (or make sure you have) an administrator ID other than your own user.
2. Make sure you can logon to this ID (i.e. you know its' password)
3. Make the change to your username.
4. Logon as your other administrator
5. Go to "Control Panel" -> "User Accounts" (I don't know if Windows 10 has a "native" equivalent)
6. Manage another account
7. Click your username
8. Change the password.

If you have EFS encrypted files, and you go this route, then you'll no longer be able to access their content. I use an encrypting backup mechanism to backup my encrypted files to a file which is not EFS encrypted. If you adopt this approach, then make sure that you can recover files from the backup before changing your own username!

To see if you have encrypted files, issue the command: cipher /u /n
