Rename Assist Please

Hi Guys

I have just upgraded my PC and used the copy of Windows 7 Pro that I have ... no problems there .... the only issue I have is the shop that installed this for me put 'USER" as the user name .... so in my C:\User Folder it reads C:\User\User. Not really an issue but I'd like it to read who it belongs to ... not USER. This has probally been asked so may times before but I cant seem to find any threads on it. If you can assist to change this ... kewl ... thanks

Open control panel and go to user accounts, you can change your user account name there. This may or may not do what you want. It won't change the name of your actual folder just your user name the is displayed in windows. Another option would be to create a new user account with the name you want. Move your documents and other stuff over to the new account, then delete the old one. Click the manage another account option to get to the screen where you can create a new account.

Pretty much like alphanumeric said, you will have to create a new user account with the name you want and move your files and folders over. Just changing the account name won't change the folder name.

Bumma ..... seems to be the hard way around such a small issue ... would have thought there might have been an easier way ... thanks guys for the responce

Thanks Barman ... appreiciate your input
