When you create a user account, you must assign the account an account name. This name appears on the Welcome Screen and on the Start menu when you log on. At some point, you may decide to change the name of your user account. The steps to do so are very simple:

  1. Click Start and click Control Panel.
  2. Open User Accounts.
  3. Click the Change your account name option. If you want to rename another user account, click the Manage another account option and select the account you want to rename.
  4. Type in the new account name within the New account name field.
  5. Click the Change Name button.
