Windows 10: UserName shown in Windows Explorer

Hi Forum Folke,


I just set up a new computer for my wife, and somehow absolutely no idea how, underC:\Users, it's showing MY username kharr instead of HER username Sally. I didn't notice this until just about everything from the old PC had been hosed in, installed, and/or set up. She's the one that pointed it out to me.


Is there any way I can re-name the account, so it appears as "Sally" in Windows Explorer? I'd rather avoid the complication of creating a new account, transferring everything over, and making it the Admin account; with my luck, it won't move things, it will insist on copying them, and there's more than likely not enough room on the SS drive for that.


Your input is greatly appreciated!

:)

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Microsoft Internet Explorer renamed to Windows Internet Explorer ?




Since version 7 of the world`s most popular web browser - Microsoft Internet Explorer was silently renamed to Windows Internet Explorer.Such a step from Microsoft is not a surprise since Internet Explorer is part of the Windows operation system for a long time.Obviously Microsoft corp. wants to state that Internet Explorer is already considered as a part of Windows and not as an external browser (remember the IE and WMP law issues last year!?).
