    I suggest you take a screenshot/photo and post that to avoid misunderstandings.

    Rename your PC - TenForumsTutorials will do what you said you wanted but I'm not convinced that is what you need.

    For example, Add PIN to your Account - TenForumsTutorials does not include any illustration that matches your description.
