    Hi,

    so I have changed my name on my email, my account, etc. But I keep on seeing my deadname. For example in groove music I still see my deadname and if I go to change name, it says Theo. What am I supposed to do to stop seeing my deadname cuz it gives me really bad anxiety

  3. Windows 11 Keeps Deadnaming Me

    No matter what I try, whenever I log into my computer, it displays my deadname instead of my preferred name. I've changed it in the properties of my account, I've changed it via Microsoft's website, but nothing works. It displays my preferred name for only a moment, and then as soon as I go to type in my password, my old name replaces it. It's infuriating, and causing me a lot of emotional stress, so is there some way to fix this??

    Microsoft Edge refuses to close

    Hello Stephen,

    We appreciate your patience on this issue. Let me assist you further.

    At this point, I suggest you to check if the same issue occur when logged in through a different Local user account.



    Follow the steps:

    • Assuming that you are already logged on to your user account in Windows 10, click the Start button.
    • From the Start menu, click your name from the top of the left pane.
    • From the displayed options click Sign out.
    • From the login screen, click to the different user account you want to switch to.


    However, if you do not have a separate user account, I suggest you to create another administrator user account by referring to the Microsoft article here: Set
    up accounts
    .

    Write to us again for further assistance related to Microsoft Edge functionality in Windows.

    Thank you.
