Is there a way on Windows to change the C:\Users\ account folder without changing the user's name ?

@Siphonay That would probably require severe registry editing, if at all possible... And the way Windows usually behaves after something like that is worse than a folder having the wrong name.

This did the trick, actually! I'm expecting some of my software to be confused about it but it's gonna be pretty easy to fix when I come accross these problems

@Siphonay @etfb A single registry key wasn't what I was expecting. hope it works smoothly... part of me thinks the old user folder will still get created from time to time and be populated by temporary files or appdata.
