Without screwing things up! I tried changing it following some (other) forum directions using netplwiz and it messed EVERYTHING up - I had a completely disassociated UNKNOWNUSER (with a bunch of stuff after it) in the SECURITY section for EVERY folder - could not access the Users folder at all. When I set it up, it only took the lower case of just "death" - not "DeathStalker", as Win10 had always done (it would prompt for "Who is going to use this computer?"). I would like to get that back without having to create another profile - as I see that creating even more problems. I'm in Edu Pro right now but will probably be switching to IoT Enterprise. Thanks for any assistance! --- DS
