    What is the file named "there" that seems to replace my Name?


    I have noticed Windows 10 has a path: This PC > Local Disk (C*Smile > Users > there

    In Windows 7 "there" was my first name. They have even added a path like this in my Documents folder that I have in an external back up hard drive.

    1. What is "there" supposed to represent? Why?

    2. Can I rename it?

    Thank you.

    :)

    This is a support forum, not a complaints department.

    I suggest you directly submit your complaints about hardware to Nokia and software to Microsoft.



    Also it often helps to read reviews when switching platforms to make sure it suits your needs. From what you've said the Lumia 820 clearly doesn't suit you.

    What RSXforever wrote was a kind of review, that can help other people to judge, if Lumia is the right phone for them.

    What is the file named "there" that seems to replace my Name?

    It is using the first five letters of your MSA. I don't think you can rename it, maybe if you use a local account.(not sure). They have the Users folder tied in with one drive now.

    One of the first things I did after doing a clean install of Win10...I disabled One Drive. There is no way I'm putting anything on a cloud...ever.

    Thank you, JohnC
