After yesterdays Windows 10 Update, my windows OS created a new user called "Alex.DESKTOP-XYZ". As seen in "C:\Users". My old user account was "Alex".
Now I have two user folders and the default login user is "Alex.DESKTOP-XYZ". Although I can access all my files on the old "Alex" account by going into "C:\Users\Alex", I'd like to go back to it being my default login account.
Why did Windows 10 create a new user account folder? And how can I switch back?
This usually occurs when there is a problem with the old profile. Windows creates a copy of the profile with the username and the computer name appended to it. Windows sits not create a new user. – music2myear – 2017-12-16T15:46:13.350
