I think this comment should be pinned or copied with your own comment being pinned. *DO NOT RUSH THIS TUTORIAL!* The smallest typo can lock you out of your account. Make sure the value in the registry editor matches the value in the Users folder character for character, or you won't be able to log into your account after you "finish", which can be terrifying.

or just DONT DO THIS. what's the purpose except for aesthetics ? go ahead if its something really important to you, otherwise, Just leave it as it is. you're gonna save a whole lot of time & trouble. things will most definitely break. the BEST scenario in which you could do this is when you just bought your PC, cause as you install softwares, they are gonna have loads of registry keys & you will have to manually edit them one by one. you will be exhausted & still miss something leading to problems in future. so just ask yourself, is it gonna make any difference ? this maybe useful in a situtation when Multiple users are using the same system for different things so you want things to be organized but it doesn't worth the time & effort you would require to solve the problem it WILL cause. I wanted this as well. I wanted things to be neat, clean & organized in my new system but reading about potential issues and what not, I have dropped this idea. will get used to this quickly. I did change the username though, that's pretty safe, you could do that.

@@tanmaydeshpande I'm also considering switching to Linux (or, at the very least, making my PC a dual-boot machine). I just breathed new life into my brother's PC by setting it up on Linux Mint 20.1 Cinnamon. After experimenting with it, there are many things I really like about it. As SamuX has stated, Libre Office was automatically installed with Linux Mint 20.1. Additionally, there are a couple of great forums where experienced Linux users will aid the newbs. On one of the forums, I was told that there is an emulator (I think it's called VirtualBox) that I have been told will run anything Windows. The only caveat I was given is that graphics-intensive programs don't work really well in it. I would think that Windows Office shouldn't have any issues. You could always set your machine up as a dual-boot and test it out before committing to it. Another issue I have with Microsoft: I just upgraded my PC, but the Windows utility is telling me that my nearly-new PC will not run Windows 11. I'm not certain exactly where I will end up, but I'm sure Linux is a part of my future.

Helpful video, but there is one issue: When you do this (tested on Windows 11 Pro and a microsoft account), the "Desktop" and "Documents" shortcut in the file explorer under "This PC" will stop working. It will give you an error message. To solve this, you have to right click, choose properties and then under path pick the option to move the path. Then select the new C:/User/YourNewUsername/DesktopOrDocuments folder and then it works again. You have to do it twice, once for Desktop, once for Documents. Not a critique to your video, but I just want to comment this for people encountering this issue, too.

C++ kept reporting unknown error when I try to package. After weeks of trying to find what the cause of the problem is, I discovered it was the user name spelling. I was pretty much fkt and had to look for a few more weeks... I usually try to find a solution to a problem myself, thus it takes weeks. If I had come here sooner I would have saved at least 1 month of my life with headache and fkn frustration beyond imagination (I probably cursed and cried so much I hope the sea can wash me clean). So again, I thank you, this means so much to me bro!

Hi buddy! I followed all the steps and even successfully changed my user name, but now my search bar doesn't work (nothing can be typed in there) though if I use another account it works just fine. Can you help?

@Ashley J I got it working now. All I did was create a new user (admin) use that to restore the name back to original, link back the account with microsoft and change the registry thing. But while doing that it prompted my user is opened and cannot change now. Then I tried logging in with my username but it did not work and instead logged me in a temporary user ( that it created on its own). Again I went back to the new admin account and saw .bak extension in the registry where my original user name was ( that I intended to change). Then I checked my users folder and it had the name how I wanted it, changed it back in the registry to the new one and logged out. When I logged back in using my user name , I got back the account and successfully renamed and search bar working.

@@abhigyanrai0712 I am facing the same problem. If I understood your procedure, you defined the desired name in the .bak profile and created a new user to apply the original name? How did you link back the Microsoft account to the original user ? What I see in my registry screen is two keys for the same SID. One has my desired username and the other has the name TEMP. Could you please help me ?

@@abhigyanrai0712 The following video helped me to deal with the .bak and TEMP keys. The problem is that when the profile is corrupted, a TEMP file is created. The only thing to do is just delete the TEMP profile and ensure .bak has the correct name. Finaly, remove the ".bak" from the name. kzitem.info/news/bejne/sWeB02lnbGamio4&ab_channel=Windows10Guru
