Windows 10: My W10 "Desktop" folder name has changed to "Desk" and I can't change it back.

Somehow my W10 "Desktop" folder name has changed to "Desk" and I can't change it back. I have tried to right click it, but it won't highlight. All the properties still refer to it as "Desktop". I rebooted, but that didn't help. I don't think it will create a problem, but I am not sure. Can someone tell me how to change it back, or is it ok as is?

name changes??

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.

How about TPU_Moms_Rule.

Just a suggestion *Smile

I agree with most people. Mod assisted name changes only.

 

Change User Name Folders

"The change the name on the Account folder is more difficult because it is more heavily protected. See this tutorial:https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/89060-chang..."

On this link, the details show renaming another account. I'm wanting to change the Admin account. It's a good thing I had another user setup on my computer, also as an Admin, because after changing the SID in step 8. And, unable to change the name in step
11. As "Rename" wasn't in the list. I restarted the computer, since the Admin user account name was changed I was unable to load windows. I had to log into my other account, which was setup as Admin and change the SID back to the 5 letters the user name was
titled.

My computer, Admin account, works again.

I wasn't wanting to just change another account user name, which this is possible to do. I wanted to change the main user, myself.
