I can'y log in to change my settingd

hello everyone,

Once i wanted to change my username of my macbook en did that but after that i've not been able to to open the little slot in the setting because they always say i have entered the wrong username or password. It's not the wrong password because if i shut down my laptop en start it they ask my password en its ok, so probably is the username. But what is my username, if i connect my laptop with a device it shows "Macbook air van Landry" but if i go to settings it just shows "Macbook". i've tried both but non of them works. How can i fix thisUser uploaded file

MacBook Air, macOS High Sierra (10.13.6)

Greetings, landryfromtongeren.


I see that you're having some problem logging into your MacBook Air after changing the username of your account. I'm happy to help.


Change the name of your macOS user account and home folder -- First, make sure you have an administrator account, then follow the steps provided in this article to change the full name, or account and home folder name.


Let me know how that goes, and take care!
