Problem with changing the name of my users folder
I recently changed my name, but I bought and set up my current MacBook Pro while I was still using my old name, so the users folder is under that old name. Yesterday I followed the instructions I found here: Change the name of your macOS user account and home folder - Apple Support. This didn't actually change the name of my users folder, instead it created a new users folder with my new name. The old one is still there and I had to manually transfer all the items in my documents and desktop folders to the new users folder.
The problem is that the old users folder won't delete. Also, earlier today I downloaded a file and this file went to the downloads folder in my old user folder, not the new one. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? It's very annoying and I don't want to have to look at my old name every time I download something.
