modifying a system folder in XP Home

by it-zeke . Updated 19 years, 6 months ago

I have a customer who’s X initialized the laptop that is now hers. She would like to rename (and better yet delete) the user name for that folder. But when deletion was tried at the simple Explorer level she gets “[User Name] is a widows system folder and is required for Windows to run properly. It cannot be deleted.” When I go into the registry, I can see his username. Do I dare change it to hers? or will that cobble everything?
