Change default username

The person who set up my new PC and load the operating system Windows 8 wrong spelled my name when he created the user account. So all my music, my documents etc folders get filed default 'Users' are in a folder with the wrong name on this subject. It may seem trivial, but it's simply false and so annoyingly. Without reloading Windows is it possible I can change the file name? Thank you.

You just create a new account, because the default user folder will keep this name even if you change the account name that allows you to open a session.

Press Windows key + R

Type: control userpasswords

Press enter on your keyboard

Click Change account name

  • Change of username with Regedit winlogon

    Posted this in the system repair because I put the safety of this operation and do not harm my computer.

    In regedit in HK_local_machine/m/wnt/crrvr/winlogon, I have a registry key called the default username. If I put it and disconnected, the computer change all user name would be, or could do it this way harm my computer? (I know that you can make an account, but don't want to have to replace all my 'personal' files. Please stay on the topic of regedit.

    Thank you
    -Alex.

    You abbreviated the key? Heh
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

    I don't think you understand what does this key.  It's not * change * the username, it defines the default username to the login prompt.

    Will not harm anything - I usually put this key all the time when I remotely know someone elses system with an administrator account.  Just before I logged out - I put that key so that the user would see their print instead of the administrative user name I had used.

  • Need to change default domain/user for logon in Windows 7 and Vista guest...

    I need to be able to change the default user domain\username login prompt. Team members where I work must be able to connect to a PC users perform a routine check, repair or warranty matenance etc and then reset the 'last loggon' to the user. This allows HIM to be able to hide our having been in their computer, a very important tool when doing security checks and looking for signs of use inappropriate computer, etc.

    In Windows XP, we could use the hack Reg next to reset the default journal, prompt the user and the domain, we need.

    REGEDIT4

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
    "DefaultUserName"="name of user.
    'DefaultDomainName '=' domain name '.
    "CachePrimaryDomain"="domain name".

    These settings are in the reg of Win 7, but they don't seem to do anything.

    What should I do so that these rule parameters and take control of the journal prompt?

    Thank you

    PS... In my humble OPINION News groups were better...

    And now in recent years is the answer to my question... Where it should be in the group I had in there.

    I found the following .bat file will allow you to set the user name for the next log in Windows 7. (Copy the next lines of text in a text file and give it a .bat extension, then run it as a local administrator).

    Beginning of the .bat code to change the default name for the next journal newspaper in Win 7 *.

    REM echo off

    appeal reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI" / v LastLoggedOnSAMUser /t REG_SZ /d "Domain\Username" /f

    appeal reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI" / v LastLoggedOnUser /t REG_SZ /d "Domain\Username" /f

    pause

    End of code for Win 7, log name *.

    For Windows XP, the following .reg file can do the trick... Do the same as above, but use extension .reg...

    Beginning of. Code REG to change the username by default for the next log in Win XP *.

    REGEDIT4

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
    "DefaultUserName"="name of user.
    'DefaultDomainName '=' domain name '.

    End code .reg for Win XP login name *.

  • Problem with implementation of Weblogic 10.3 after the change of username password

    I am facing problem with bringing Weblogic 10.3 after the change of username password in the field of safety Madhok, basically, I have deleted the user weblogic default and set m, y custome own user and provide credentials in the server start tab. When I try to bring up the administrator of the server it is, but managed servers fail from the administration console and I see security credentials for authentication error in newspapers? Why who would consider that the server administrator is able to provide the same credentials.

    http://www.interalliancegroup.com

    We had the similar problem in the past, our problem is:
    Problem:
    We have removed weblogic default security domain user and create a new user when Manager nodes and managed servers declined. When we try to put in place managed servers after the starting node Manager we continue get refused authentication errors.

    Solution:
    Recreate the user weblogic now try and implement servers managed from the command line using weblogic user. Once they are up to tap them down and bring them to the top again with the new user you created and it will work

    Reason:
    The 10.3-managed servers seems to store the local credentials he managed ldap or cache servers. When you start managed servers don't know the new information of identification and authentication performed against the old values of credentials stored, where they fail. Once they are started with the information identification old they communicate with the admin servers to sync it hides with admin servers and new identification information is updated and then you can restart the servers managed with the new credentials.
    Note: Sometimes after reboot you can meet the problem as the synchronization with the administration server process is asynchornous, weblogic prints a line saying something like asynchronous operation with the null Server address. If the line is printed sync has arrived and you're good. In case you do not see the line to reboot once again and you will see the line after which you can restart with the new credentials.

    You cannot change an account name in system preferences. You can add or delete accounts and change a password, but change the real name requires a lot of technical work via the Terminal application.

    Are you referring to the username and the password of the user interface? If this is the case, you cannot change the user name because there is no option for you to change.
