What would happen if, instead of creating new user, etc., I simply (!) changed every instance of 'Dr Mary Bernard' in the Registry to 'Mary Bernard'? I have a feeling the answer must be: total disaster, which is why I haven't tried it. But I'm curious. I have, by the way, made extensive -...

Thanks to marcs41 and bcastner - but it didn't work. I followed bcastner's instructions, and those on the Microsoft page, faithfully. Having set up 2 new users (a temp one, and one the name I wanted), and logged in as [temp user], I was supposed to copy almost all the Documents and Settings...
