| Guest | User name in user accounts different nam than the user name in C:u I changed the user of a Vista Business computer. The name in user accounts was changed but the user listed in C:users is still the old one. There is only one user on this machine. For example, when I go to user accounts "Ron" is the displayed user. But when I go to the C drive under users it is C:users/Rebecca the old user name. Has the correct files in it, but cannot change Rebecca to Ron. When I tried to delete it, it said it was trying to delete "Ron" when the delete confirm window popped up. Any suggestions. |

| Guest | Re: User name in user accounts different nam than the user name in C:u Hello, this is normal behavior - you can change the user name, but not it's folders in Users. I'd try creating a new user with the correct name and copy the necessary files to that user. Greetings, P.
