@Cyber2f08 What's the output of $env:USERNAME in your PowerShell?

@Cyber2f08 If you want to change the windows USERNAME environment variable string, you can do this in the Advanced User Accounts Control Panel.

Open it by running netplwiz ("C:\Windows\System32\Netplwiz.exe"). Then select the name you want to change and click on the Properties button. Now you get the properties of the selected user account: you can change the User name (, Full name & Description) here. You'll (just) need administrator rights to do this.
