When changing your User name, does it affect any programs such as InDesign or AutoCAD where files are linked locally to files in folders in your explorer?

Nice guide, seemingly simple tasks often buried deep in layers of windows settings these days!

THANK YOU!!!! I can't tell you how many other websites I went to that had options that didn't exist. Your first options, very straight forward and worked perfectly!!

The thing is when you change the user facing information like this does it change the folder name under C:\users or does that folder retain the original username?

Brian, I can’t get Windows Terminal to start from right clicking the Windows button any more. I have to run it from all apps menu. Is this a serious problem? No idea why this has changed.

Thank you so much, no other videos actually had THIS fix.

[hamzazain]

Thanks for this information, I bought this Alienware laptop from a computer store and it was driving me nuts that it had their name on it. Your helpful suggestion got that name off my computer super fast.
