  2. My name is wrongly displayed in "To" address

    Hi,

    There is a possibility that your email address was already added to your contacts using a different name. To address this issue, let us look into your People app to update the entry. Follow the steps below:

    • Click the Windows key and click All apps.
    • Locate the People app and click it.
    • Search for the wrong display name.
    • When the name appears, right-click anywhere on the screen, then click
      Edit
      .
    • Input the correct name, then click Save.

    Once done, try sending an email and let's see if the display name has been updated.

    Let us know the result.

    Regards.

  3. Info on how to Change my Name Displayed on the Lock screen

    HI all,

    When my PC boots to the log on screen in Windows 10, (I log in using my Microsoft account and not a local account)

    The screen displays my name as my email address!

    Example the displays shows;

    my picture

    Hello

    *** Email address is removed for privacy *** ( want my Name here )

    Enter Pin or swipe finger to log in

    How do I change to display my name?

    My name (First and Last) are correct in my Microsoft account.

    When I set up my kids accounts on their laptops (using their Microsoft accounts) their name is displayed and not the account email but mine wont do that.

    Suggestions?
