    Windows Profile Name Is My Email


    When I was setting up Windows I had it use my microsoft account and when I got to the file explorer it says my user name is the first 5 letters of my email and it says my user name is my email but the windows sign in screen just shows my full name (thankfully). Is there a way you can change it and does anyone know why Windows does that?

    Windows Profile Name Is My Email

    Lost default photo viewer after profile rebuild

    Thanks Brink. I've tried those steps before i started searching Google. After the profile rebuild i don't have the Photo app listed to choose to make it default in either the system settings for default apps or the Open With option.

    I can't even find it doing a search. Seems to have been removed somehow with the profile rebuild, which doesn't make sense.

    Might be helpful to list what i've done Windows Profile Name Is My Email :) I've done the open with check, the choose default program in the system menu, tried that in device manager default programs also. I've checked the programs and features Turn windows features on/off and it's not listed there (never thought it was but that was a suggestion), searched the MS Store, it's not listed there either.

    I don't like playing in the registry unless i have defined steps and haven't found anything for this yet, just the Win7 version like in my OP.
