Renaming the administrator a/c

[Guest]

I received a solution to renaming user-created a/c's but what i want to know
is if there is a way to rename (including folder/file paths) of the
hidden/built in adminsitrator a/c that you set up/name once only during the
XP install process.

Thanks.

The built-in Administrator account can certainly be renamed, and this
is, in fact, a standard security practice in many business and
government environments. The user profile folders, however, cannot be
renamed.

So hwo do you rename it? There isn't an option when log in unlike normal user
accounts.

1. Click Start > Run
2. Type "lusrmgr.msc" (Without quotes)
3. Double click "Users" (Right side)
4. Right click "Administrator" > Rename

Note : Remember the name. Because in future, if your account gets
corrupted or you cant access your account and if you forget this name,
it can be very hard to enter in windows.
