Could you try following this guide > User Profile Folder - Change User Account Folder Name - Windows 7 Help Forums and seeing if this works?
The guide is for windows 7 / Vista, however it should be the same if not similar.
Set up a local account with the desired name, delete the other account and then change the local account to a MS account (if desired).
Good to hear, i will add it to the overall sticky for the subforum!
Thanks @N00berG00ber
No, Thank You!
i saw that post on sevenforums, but didnet want to try it cause i figured the registry keys changed since win7, but most of them are the same.
