Change a folder name

I am running Vista Home Basic.  I am the only user on my PC. I changed my name and therefore changed the name of the computer. However, I can not change the name of the folder in Users who had my old name for my new name.  By example, if I have were known as Brian but am now George I changed my computer to George-PC name. But among consumers, the folder with all of my stuff is always caled Brian and I can't change that to George. It is a problem because if I have someone send an attached file properties still show C/users/Brian, which I don't want to happen.  Any suggestions?

Hello

You send an attachment, you will see the actual path is not sent, only the file.

Create a new ADMIN account and use it to do this and to test and fix - you can use your
same password. Log on as an ADMINISTRATOR on the new account and use this method. It must be
3 accounts - one you are connected (ADMIN) and you want to switch to
and you want to go to - see:

    You can try with scriptlistener to record the code. Change to the last line of the NO to ALL dialog boxes, so that the dialog - if you wish. There are two places in the code to save the files: one where is actually saved the file, and the other where the default value is file. I have seen it changed something with it. So, you can simply use the first listing of a path in the code below.

  • Why did LR change my photos imported in a date folder names and moving them to my disc external hard to my C: drive internal?

    I just started using Lightroom version 4.4 recently. I imported my 1 hour and Keywords photos files. I have all my photos on an external drive and my catalog on my drive is internal.

    All my files were remaining on my external drive that I would like but then recently, after keywording a folder full of photos LR would change my folder name on the date the photos were taken and

    export to my internal C: drive. I somehow inadvertently changing a default setting? How can I prevent the LR do this? Help, please. I'm stuck until I can solve this problem.

    It happened because you have not read carefully the import dialog before pressing the button import.

    The next time you import, look at all the parameters and confirm that they are what you want. In this case, you forgot that you said it to copy or move the pictures, when it seems that Add would be the option you want. These are at the top of the dialog box.

  • CHANGE FOLDER NAME

    I read where someone else has this problem.

    I ran into some cases where I couldn't change the name

    and I had to close the folder to do or something like.

    Or if its an official file from Apple.

    All of a sudden I can't change any folder, I am trying to do.

    Went to finder you click new folder.  Tried to name it, nothing.

    Next step for me is to turn off my computer, and then restart.

    Sometimes it helps.  Any ideas?

    What happens if you do a right click on it and choose Rename from the context menu?

    Hello

    Before starting the installation, you run these controls?

    Check if the manufacturer of your computer/laptop has Windows 8/8.1 drivers available for your model.

    If this is not available, Windows 8/8.1 not install and work properly for you.

    There is a lot of information in this first link from Microsoft:

    I could do this drag-and-drop in Acrobat 9 Pro, but it doesn't seem to work in Acrobat Pro XI.

    As try67 said, I have not found a way to have the use of the A9 a different name. On a Mac, because the destination folder is "just there" the most straightforward approach is to highlight the file Untitled Pages.pdf extracted, press ENTER, and then type (or paste) the new name.

  • Some folder names to avoid moving message in them

    31.0 running on Windows XP SP3. This is the second time I've noticed this problem but I didn't report one and don't remember the details.

    I created a folder named '_OpenCart' Local When I try to move mail in my Inbox by drag-and - drop or other methods in this case, the mail does not move. No error is generated, the message simply remains in the Inbox and _OpenCart remains empty.

    Change the name of the folder to '_Open Cart' (note the space) solves the problem. Can I change the name back again and again, and when the space is there I can move the mail folder. If I remove the space in the folder name, and then I can't move mail in the folder. The file can be opened and I can read messages that have been put there when the name was "_Open Cart", and I can get out message to other folders, but I can't add more messages in the folder "_OpenCart".

    Thanks, your explanation makes sense and I agree in a perfect world, it should be fixed, but I'm sure that there are more important things to work on.

    I checked the link you provided and I will try to use characters that appear not to cause problems, such as space and the dash force my files frequently used for the top of the list.

    Overall I am pretty happy with TB, much less eccentric than my old Eudora, although I always use up automatic off-mail I don't want to clutter my Outbox.

  • Change administrator account name and now can't find My Documents

    Tomorrow I'm helping a friend clean her Windows XP computer after her divorce.    He said he went into Control Panel, user accounts and accounts deleted for his sons and then changed the name on his account (Administrator) to his name.  Now he says that he cannot find his documents.  I guess that it should not have changed his account name to her name and instead made his account an administrative and then deleted his account.  Is there a way to fix this?   Thank you.

    Hi sillycat41,
     
    Look in the C:/Documents and Settings folder, as to how much user account folders are present.
    Maybe his account will have a different name.
     
    Repair the damaged user account and check if it helps.
    For more information, see:
     
    If this is insufficient, restore the system to an earlier point before making any changes to the user account.

  • Any significance to the folder names?

    I have just flashed the new fuse to the latest version of the firmware of my wife.  I changed the mode of meteorological service of the Canada.  Now I'm ready remove all music that came pre-installed on the "rocket" because they are all in MTP mode.  When I delete existing files, it is important to keep the same folders and folder names?

    As if I want to install pictures and video files, they into specifically named folders to read correctly?  If so, what records are crutial for keep?

    The "rocket" will find your content just about anywhere, if folder names are not that critical.  However, content placed in the files of audio books and Podcasts is treated specially.  But no worries, the "rocket" automatically creates the standard for you files if they are missing.
