Transferring Computer with Few Prefix Computer

Asked By eharper 10 points N/A Posted on - 12/06/2011

I transferred the computer name with a few prefix computers. But Windows Explorer objects are still showing few computer username /password instead of few prefix computer username/password. Any solution or any way to resolve this through instruction line? I am running Windows XP Home Edition so you cannot connect to Local Users and Groups.

Transferring Computer with Few Prefix Computer

Instead of transferring the name, you could have just changed the name in the user account settings to avoid such complications, and therefore I will suggest that you go to the user account settings and change the account name you have allocated that computer to remove the bugs that you are experiencing:

1. You will need to access the control and panel and then in the user accounts window, you will click Change an account in the Pick a task list box.
2. Choose the account that you want to change its name.
3. And then select Change the name.

As easy as that, you have changed the account name.
