Unfortunately I did not create the System Restore point (I did just now, just in case).
And once I had the PC working I found where I saved the Registry Backup. It was in the Downloads folder. Although I didn't see it before.
My problem with the actual folder being named Litva and in the Windows Explorer being Dmitry remains. I thought this problem was causing not being able to use Windows Media Player. But I am not sure.
I created a separate thread on the issue with the Windows Media Player.
Again, thank you!

>Before we go too much deeper, did you look at the System Restore option in the first link? That might be the quickest and easiest if you have a recent enough restore point.

>Other than that, yes, you'll need to find your backup. It will help a lot if you know the name of the backup file you created, or some part of the name, or its extension. For example, at the command prompt you can search for it by going to the root of the drive and then searching all subfolders e.g.

>cd \
>dir filename.ext /s /p

>dir *.bkp /s /p

>>>>>>I am trying to make the Users folder to "Dmitry" from "Litva" The strange thing is that I see it correctly in the Windows Explorer and the Computer Management window. In those windows it says "Dmitry" And yet if I go to the command prompt and the folder Users, the only folders I see are Litva and Public. I find it strange that in one place it is Dmitry (the way I want it) but the actual folder name is different.
