I'm trying to change my username, but not just through account settings.
I need to change the C:\Users\USERNAME folder name so that certain programs can install or save to a folder in that directory.
I'm currently using some special characters to make it look cool, but that's a problem now since programs can't read the characters in the username.
By special characters I mean holding down alt+ a combination of numbers. Example: ░Ω¼╙╥╙╘╒╓╫
Most programs do not read that, and I constantly have to move the .exe files to public folder to install anything.
Also I can't save files as easy, most programs don't read the special characters in the directory name so they skip over them and give an error that it can't be found...
