In the following article we will show you how to change your computer name under Windows 10. This could be useful if there are several computers in a network to keep track of them.

1. Press the keys combination "Windows/Start" (depending on the keyboard) & "X" and now select "System".

3. A field now appears in which you can enter your desired name. Then click on "Next".
Please make sure that you make a hyphen instead of spaces, in the example picture you can see how it should not look.
