How do I change the name under my photo on the start up screen? Someone else input this information and it needs to be changed.

Thank you!

Welcome to HP support community.

Method 1: Classic Control Panel

Find and open the classic Control Panel. One way to do this is to press Windows + R and then type Control then hit Enter.

Open the User Accounts control panel, then click Manage another account.

Click the account you want to edit.

Click Change the account name.

Enter the correct username for the account then click Change Name.

Method 2: User Accounts Advanced Control Panel

Press Windows key + R, type: netplwiz or control userpasswords2 then hit Enter.

Select the account then click Properties.

Select the General tab then enter the user name you want to use. Click Apply then OK, then click Apply then OK again to confirm the change.

Let me know if that helps.
