when I click on my computer, then c drive, I get 3 folders (Documents and Settings; program files; and windows)- then I click on documents and settings and I get 3 more folders (documents and settings -again; all users; and Morgan (personalized folder). I want to change that name "Morgan" and it won't let me. I know I have to go to the registry but I can't find it in the registry anywhere.
