Previous user name in App Store

I have a 2020 MacBook Air that I have for my daughter. I have reformatted the hard drive and installed Monterey. When I go to the App Store it still has her username for apps that she downloaded that are no longer in the hard drive. How do I get rid of her name? I have tried all sorts of things from going into the preferences in the system folder as well as my library and there’s nothing there with her user name. I have tried using EasyFind and there is nothing. Any suggestions are welcome. I even tried using SuperUser.

What your daughter needs to do is to sign out of iCloud/Apple ID on that device. This is what she should have done before turning it over to you - that is the only thing that will disassociate the device from her account.
