Re: Changing acount name
Hello,
yes, the user name folder is not to rename. So, I'd make a temporary folder
outside the user's folder, copy everything what is needed there and delete
the user, create a new user, copying the personal files into the newly
created user's folder. I don't think there's another solution.
Greetings,
P. Di Stolfo
