Change to User's Name on Stand Alone PC

I'd like to change one, Administrator, All Users, Default User, or Owner to
my name. Pls advise which one is advisable to change. My Desktop is wireless
connected to my Notebook both Owner used only so the same name will be on
both computers. Thx.

If the owner account, is the account that got created when you first bought
your computers, then renaming it may cause problems, well it has in previous
times I have tried.

The best way is to create a new account and then transfer old settings to
the new account and finally delete the owner account.

Hope that helps ?
