Maybe [s]he complaints that the username is arbitrarily truncated.
- cptskippy 10y agoBut why is that a problem? That isn't the name used to login and would only be visible if you navigated the file system via console or went into c:\users\. File explorer abstracts that folder name away and in scripts it should be referenced via the environment variable. So it shouldn't actually be an issue.
- sixothree 10y agoI do both of those things on a daily basis. And when I have to type it someplace that doesn't have tab completion I don't want to have to count the letters in my own name. It should just be my name. In 2017 why is seven characters too many? When your first name is truncated it just looks wrong and arbitrary. I get sick of seeing C:\Users\Matth when I would rather see C:\Users\Matthew.
