"Yes, this is what happens if you set up the account using your Microsoft account. Windows uses a truncated first part of your Microsoft account as the basis for the user folder and account name."
.................................
I thought the Windows username would always be exactly the same as the user's folder-name in the Users / AppData section. But Microsoft screwed things up once more... Does anyone have a fix for this? How to get to the user AppData Local or Roaming section if names do not match?
c:\users\%username%
will not always work....
but I think this is the "path" I am looking for
%USERPROFILE%
The environmental variable for a users directory in windows is %userprofile%
Thanks,
