ok got a load of machine in work, all xp sp2, fired them up and set them up as default name = user.

obviously system thinks default user is user.

The machines have been rolled out but what i want to do is change this default name to "jbloggs"

basically so that under documents and settings it says jbloggs instead of the initial generic name of "user" that i used as default.

Thanks in advance

machines not on domain on a workgroup at the moment

basically its the 1st account that was created

say on explorer at the moment it looks like this under documents and settings

administrator
all users
default user
user

its the bottom one i want to change thats the one that has the data etc etc all the others are blank,

so the system defaults to this, i can change name in the users box to say "jbloggs" but it will not change the user bit under documents and settings to this also if the screen saver kicks in it defaults to user as the name

it looks as if everything is stemming from this account

hope this helps kind of
