Rename local administrator account name to another name

Hello mate, *Smile Be sure you are signed out of the account you are wanting to rename its profile folder, and signed in to another admin account. If you are, then see if booting into Safe Mode without network with the other admin account may allow you to rename the profile folder.

 

Rename local administrator account name to another name

Hi again, I'm on another computer and having problems renaming an old profile folder name. I followed all of the above instructions and ran into an error in Step 12 (in Change Name of User Profile Folder in Windows 10) which is renaming the old profile folder name to a new profile folder name. The error is that I can't rename the old profile folder name because of an open file in the old folder (I paraphrased the error message). How do I fix this error? For what it's worth, the old folder contains a OneNote folder which syncs to the cloud.

 

Weird account name and lost Administrator rights.


Well, I know what I would do.

Under Settings, Accounts, Family & other users, then under Other users, add someone else to this PC. Then click the link for "the person I want to add doesn't have an email address". Then click the link for "Add a user without a Microsoft account". Then enter a temporary user name like TempAdmin. When the account appears in the Other Users list, click on it. Click change account type. Make the temporary account an Administrator.

Log in as the temporary administrator account, and copy all the files you want to keep from both the Andrius folders under Users to the temporary account's folder. Then delete whatever Andrius users are listed under settings, accounts. Go back to the Users folders and delete any remaining Andrius folders in there. Reboot the computer, log in as the temporary administrator and recreate an Andrius account using the exact same steps you made the temporary account - you can convert it to a Microsoft account if you want later.

Then do the rest of the steps to copy all your files back and delete the temporary administrator account.
