Change administrator username

[JrDave2304]

I'm wondering if there is a way I can change the Administrator username to my name? I had to reformat and did an unattended install and for some reason it used "Administrator" as the username instead of mine. I've got things (i.e., itunes library/artwork) that are in My Documents and don't wanna create another username (i know it would be easy, but i get annoyed with too many usernames at login). Appreciate any help.

Start/Control Panel/User Accounts, change user name

that's what i obviously originally thought to do, but there is no option to change the "Administrator" username

Try: start, run, compmgmt.msc, local users and groups, users, rename administrator

Why would you want to change it? You can only log in with it in safe mode. So password protect it and leave it alone.

thanks stash, that was exactly what i needed/wanted to do!
