All my previous setups used a silly name like "Mike" that was not linked to a Microsoft account but still chosen automatically, or my preferred username "menright" if I noticed the chance to set the name myself during initial Windows setup. These setups don't seem to have been as difficult to get started with. It seems like everyone who faces this (based on more extensive searching starting from your suggestion to rename the account) ends up creating a local account with a well-chosen name. The data have to be transferred from one account to the other if there is anything to transfer. The advantages, if there are any, of a link to a Microsoft account apparently can be achieved by linking the local account to the desired Microsoft account after the local account is set up. I don't see anything about actually renaming the account. This seems like a good place to start: https://superuser.com/questions/1129165/how-to-rename-a-user-account-that-is-already-linked-to-a-microsoft-account > > > ----rwx---+ 1 menright Mike Enright 0 Oct 21 15:02 CMakeLists.txt > > the "+" says that there's extended ACL present. So, nothing odd. > The Windows view of this set of permissions (070 plus whatever is in the rest of the ACL) seems to be that Windows programs can't do very much with this file. So it's odd from that POV and I wonder if that was caused by my renaming the "Cygwin account". Using cacls I see the Windows username in some of the entries and I don't see the cygwin username in any. I know that I can get a workable ACL with chmod but I can see that executables built by the compiler are not executable, either by name from cygwin bash or by double click from Windows Explorer.
