How do I rename the user_000 folder in Windows 8

Hi all

Today, I got a new laptop with windows 8.
I had signed up for a Microsoft account earlier, so I typed that in when setting up my laptop for the first time.

Unfortunately, the default seems to be that the user folder is created in this format:

C:\Users\User _000 where 'user' is my first name, lowercase. I wish I had the format of C:\Users\Account. where 'Account' would be my full name with a space between the two and capitalized letters.
Anyone know a simple way to change this?

If you can't pass on your account offline I can do when I slide to the left and then click users.

The reason for which you need an online account is due to access to the Windows store I'm curious to know why you want to change the profile for you were not able to access your Vaio applications or is it out of curiosity.
No doubt a reason, it was size 000 to differentiate themselves from your local account you mind, I'm just speculating.
I believe you can change your username under settings and also you can have an account offline.
If you explain why perhaps someone with more knowledge of the question can help you!
This operating system is no longer uses an interface to command line icon of hybrid it's supposed to be easier and your decision-making of that complex.
Here, this tutorial will show you how to change name and add profiles using the interface emblematic it's really easy

  • How do I use the recovery folder on the HDD repair Satellite A300

    Hi all

    I have Toshiba satellite A300, model No. PSAGCE-00C006AR,.

    My operating system is windows Vista Home premium.
    Recently, I was working on battery when my system is closed.

    When I connected charger and power he found that the display shows the message (Please wait) forever and does not allow me to enter my password.
    When I press the power button to shut down my PC and reboot in safe mode, I can enter my password and connect to my PC, and however, when I connect to the PC shows only black screen with pointer and nothing more.
    Start button does not respond, the icon my computer or all other icons do not appear on the desktop.

    I did the following steps in trying to repair my PC: -.

    1 I restarted my PC in safe mode with command prompt, you try to run chkdsk/r, however I got the error message that the disk is protected and that I can demand that it runs at the next reboot. I typed Y and restart, but chkdsk does not work although I restarted 2 times.
    2 I restarted my PC and select advanced option then startup repair problem, then I got the message that no problem was found.
    3 I also tried Toshiba HDD recovery, but could not find any folder recovery although there is about 1.5 GB partition that has everything.
    4 I tried the windows complete PC Restore, but I received a message that (a valid backup not found)

    Any advice how I can get my rear work system will be appreciated and how do I use the recovery folder on the HARD disk and avoid the write-protected message?

    Hello

    Of course I don't know what the problem is exactly, but I'm confused on a few other facts.
    The fact is that Toshiba has created the reminder that informs the user on the first day that Toshiba doesn't offer the recovery DVDs and it is recommended to create such a DVD support immediately.

    Question about you: you created this recovery media?

    The Toshiba recovery image has nothing to do with the WinRE Vista 1.5 GB partition. Partition WinRE Vista feature. On new models of laptops Toshiba recovery image is saved in folder HDDRecovery on the second partition. If touch you didn t and if you didn t change anything with partitions you should be able to install Vista using this recovery image.

    After your computer is turned on press F8 and choose the first option (if available) computer repair. You can enter the Vista System Recovery Options. The last option should be Toshiba Recovery. If you didn t change anything, this option will be available.

  • Can not stop cryptographic services to rename the Catroot2 folder.

    Hello

    I recently bought Halo 2 for WIndows Vista and tried to run it on my pc, which uses windows 7 Home premium. Since I installed the game, whenever I play it stops, saying that "Games for Windows Live could not... etc" I looked up the solution on a microsoft forum, and he said to rename the folder c:\windows\system32\catroot 2 by stopping the cryptographic service. ""

    Whenever I try to stop the cryptographic service, I get:

    System error 5: access denied

    I tried running the cmd as administrator prompt, and I get the message: "the application pause, continue or stop is not available for this service"

    I can also rename the Catroot2 folder, as he always says: ' this folder could not be renamed because it is already in use... etc ", but I think it's because I have not stopped the cryptographic service".

    What I'm doing wrong and what should I do to fix this?

    Hello

    ·        Are you logged on to the computer as administrator?

  • How to disable the "Fonts" folder in Windows Explorer?

    Hi all

    I have a problem to deactivate the fonts folder in Windows Explorer.
    My question:
    How to turn off or do not display "Fonts" in Windows Explorer my computer tab?

    I think it is unnecessary because it already exists in the Control Panel folder.

    If anyone can solve this, thanks in advance.

    Windows customizes the Fonts folder and offers a special folder view that allows you to hide variations, such as bold and italics. It also allows you to change the display settings of the file in a way that is specific to fonts. If you remove the read-only attributes and the Fonts folder system, these custom display settings not available. For folders that you have customized by using the tab, Customize dialog box Properties of the folder, the folder icon and other other customizations may be missing when you remove the read-only attribute.

    Lightroom keeps trying to create a second folder "2016" under "2016", then the subfolders with the correct name (date) at import, why and how can I remove the second folder "2016".

    One of the possibilities: when you import, you select a Destination folder that contains a subfolder of 2016 in the path (displayed in the green rectangle) when you really want a destination folder that does not have the 2016 subfolder in the path (shown in the red rectangle)

    How can I move the Virtual Mode of Windows XP hard drive to another drive?

    TIA

    Hi Benyl,

    The vhd in programfiles basis cannot be moved or renamed, if done, xp mode stops at the start.

    To move the files under c, first to boot xp, instead of save mode the machine virtual., turn it off. (settings to prompt the user for action narrow close). Close the machine virtual., and then choose stop. This will remove the vsv file. Do not delete the .vsv file because it contains data if you have not registered in the virtual machine.

    Now, move it "C:\Users\CHRIS.domainname\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows virtual PC\Virtual Machines\Windows XP Mode.vhd" to a desired location.

    Parameters of xp mode open, go to the hard drive 1 setting and reposition the hard drive to the new location of the vhd. You should now be able to start the virtual machine.
