    wrong account at startup.


    I recently got a new computer with Windows 11. At start up it gave me the option to link to my old computer and migrate the files over. There are several computers on my network and i chose the wrong one. It was the one my office assistant uses and the computer names are very similar. Is there a way to go back or to link the correct computer as well? Any help is appreciated.thank,scott

    :)
