Clone Account

[Sychic]

Is there any way to completely clone an account on windows 10 and just change the account name?

not sure if it will work. try making a new account through settings and just copy everything inside the old user folder to the new one. 

 

user folder location: C:\users

Or you can as a administrator copy the user folder you want to clone  to any random place and (for example: documents or desktop) rename it and move (don’t copy!) the folder back to the users

Thanks for both of the suggestions but I just ended up renaming the account folder name in C:/users. Had to change stuff in the windows registry but it works fine
