Unlike a Mac, computers managed by Windows, in all their versions, have a name, a name that is defined automatically when we install Windows. This name enables users of computers connected to the same network to recognize them quickly, ideal for when we have to access files on a specific computer.
But at the same time, it is also used to be identified by other devices, whether mobile phones, tablets or any other device via bluetooth, for example. If you have tired of seeing how every time you want information from your mobile to your Windows PC, a DESKTOP type name and some numbers appear, we will explain how you can change it.
To change the name of our team and do it easily recognizable by other equipment or devices, Windows nos ofrece diferentes métodos, a pesar de todo, en este post, le mostraremos el procedimiento más rápido y sencillo.
Rename a PC
(*10*)
- We access the Windows 10 configuration through the keyboard shortcut Windows key + io or we access through the start menu and clicking on the cogwheel that is shown in the lower left part of this menu.
- Within the configuration alternatives of our equipment we access System> About.
- Next, we go to the right column and click on Change the name of this team.
- Name of the team cannot be separated by spacesand we can use letters, numbers and hyphens.
Once we have changed the name of our team, for the changes to take effect, we have to restart our team, so that from this dynamic the equipment reconnects to the network with the new name that we have established.
