Change user name Mint 19.2 Cinnamon
Hi
I am passing on a NUCi5 to my sister but can't seem to change the username I used when I installed for myself to my sister's name. If I add her as another user with same administrative privilege, I can delete myself but all my settings which I want to keep for her is lost. Password can be changed, but I can't figure out how to change my name to hers. Only a single user is what I would like to be able to achieve. :banghead: Any help would be appreciated. Thanks so much in advance.:hattip: |
man usermod

read through teh whole manpage, it is not too long |
you might have to do this from another account
login as root ( if you can ) or create a new user ( with sudo access ), login , do the usermod then logout and delete the new user you created. |
