i want to modify/change my user name on my new computer. how do i do it?

I am in the middle of programming my new Omni 120 PC (AMD-E-450 APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics) computer but I want to change the user name (mind you, not add).  How do I do it?  I have yet to install the Virus protection on it.

You'll need to be logged in as another user first, one with admin rights. Then you can go to Control Panel, User Accounts, and change the user name of the user in question to something else.

Thanks Mayhemers!  I'll give it a try but I'd appreciate it if you could further enlighten me as to add usernames on my computer.  Hope to hear from you soon!!!
