    Can confirm, want to change your domain or computer name? Windows 7/10: control panel , system , computer name tab. Windows 10 /11: control panel, system, windows settings, advanced system settings, old system control panel, computer name tab.

    Why add a middle man??

      That many steps? WindowsKey+Break > Change computer name.

      If you’re okay with three steps, on Windows 10 and newer, you can right click the start menu and generally open system. Just about any version supports right clicking “My Computer” or “This PC” and selecting properties, as well.

        But that would require effort to learn to do something different. And a lot of users are firmly against that notion.

            And there is no reason not to either. You would still be looking at the cli in Unix with that attitude.

              I don’t know about that one, It would be really hard to teleconference though the terminal.

              Especially considering we still have (more or less) the same CLI for decades at this point.

              Bourne was from 1977-1979, bash which was heavily inspired/designed to replace was from 1989. It is still the default shell in ubuntu.
